He also says: &quot;Observe!&quot;<br> <br>Wilmer has always known that the greatest science comes from the keenest observations. So when he observes his classmates looking a little green ... and orange...and chartreuse-fuchsia polka-dotted...he knows that it's up to him to find the cause of this mysterious illness - and the cure.<br> <br>But with his arch nemesis, Claudius Dill, hot on his heels; the eagle-eyed biology teacher, Mrs. Padgett, determined to thwart his plans; and a host of fluorescent classmates bouncing off the walls at increasingly dangerous speeds, can Wilmer prove he has what it takes to save the sixth grade from a colorful demise before it's too late?
