Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Leonard Neeble has been unhappy since his parents moved from the big city to suburban Kangaroo Park, New Jersey. His new school, Bat Masterson Jr. High, is terrible, and he has no friends since his classmates are snobbish louts who won't be friends with him because he's portly.Things change once a new student shows up from The Bronx: Alan Mendelsohn, a trollish student who shuts the school down by telling everyone he's from Mars. After they both get suspended for acting out, the two boys journey to Downtown Hogboro, where they start a Mind Control course that teaches them telekinesis and, eventually, how to travel between dimensions.This 1979 novel by Daniel Pinkwater is one of his best-loved books. It is now out of print, but was published in the 1997 omnibus 5 Novels. | |

Alan Mendelsohn, the Boy from Mars / int_31fa019d | comment |
All Psychology Is Freudian: Leonard is sent to a psychologist who insists that all of his problems in school stem from a deep-seated, secret hatred of his parents, and refuses to listen to Leonard unless he confesses all of his "problems". He also asks Leonard about repressed memories from when he was an infant. Of course, Leonard sees this as nonsense, but makes a bunch of stuff up to satisfy him. | |

All Therapists Are Muggles: Leonard gets sent to a child psychiatrist, who is obviously incompetent and insists Leonard has mental conditions he doesn't have. Leonard decides to exploit this to get out of school, and tells him the complete truth about his supernatural adventures learning mind-control. The shrink doesn't belive him, but later on is introduced to a Venusian who confirms everything Leonard said. Being faced with the reality of Leonard's "delusions", the shrink proceeds to lose his mind and go crazy. | |

90% of Your Brain: The Klugarsh Mind Control course claims that only 10% of the human brain is in use at a time, and that telekinesis and telepathic skills can be attained by learning to access the rest. | |
