You don’t choose the book—the book chooses you.
Sixth grader Spencer Lemon has a degenerative eye disease—and he’s rapidly losing his eyesight. So he has no idea why he was chosen to guard Pandora’s Book. When Ed, the old guy at the nursing home, hands over the book, he doesn’t get a chance to explain any of the rules to Spencer. Spencer only knows that the book contains famous dead people—people who can be brought back to life. Spencer and his autistic best friend, Gregor, soon figure out how to get people out of the book, but not how to get them back in. Then Ed disappears, and a strange man shows up on Spencer’s doorstep—and he seems to know a lot about Spencer and about Pandora’s Book. Is he one of the bad guys? Or is here to help Spencer unravel the secrets of the book? But there are others interested in Pandora’s Book, others who might use its powers to take over the world. And it’s up to Spencer, along with Gregor and Ed’s mysterious (and cute) granddaughter Mel, to protect the book—and save the world.

Loved this book! Its crammed full with action and adventure! Loved the characters! This is a really great book to have on your summer reading list!
I liked this book because it was fiction and nonfiction. It had real people from history like Adolf Hitler, Julia child, and Teddy Roosevelt. I recommend this book to anyone who likes history and adventure.
A wonderful thrilling story about a guy, sixth grader Spencer Lemon , who has a degenerative eye disease—and he’s rapidly losing his eyesight. So he has no idea why he was chosen to guard Pandora’s Book.

This book is soo good But if I was trusted with that secret I would be freakish out
cool
A boy gets the trust of a secret book that can bring people back to life. There is another book though, that brings the worst people in history back to life. Some bad guys will do anything to get both books from the boy. He and his friends rely on some people from history that they brought back to life in order to keep the world from being taken over.
I want to read it now
