Addresses one of the enigmatic of seventeenth century writers, Thomas Browne (1605-1682), whose voracious intellectual pursuits provide an unparalleled insight into how early modern scholarly culture understood the relations between its disciplines.

The antics of Patrick Cantwell and his family, featured in the award-winning Never Hug a Nun, return as they head to Grand Haven, Michigan for summer vacation. After another boy reveals the facts of life--complete with pictures from the encyclopedia--Patrick's entire worldview changes and suddenly the idea of spending a week fishing and playing games with the family seems a lot less appealing. Patrick and his new friend decide to make a bet to see who can kiss a girl before the end of the week. As troublesome little sisters, biker gangs, and parents get in the way, Patrick wonders if he'll have a chance to even talk to a girl, let alone kiss one. With the same endearing humor and energy as Never Hug a Nun, readers will be sure to love Try to Kiss a Girl.
