Billy has a successful invention, he is even going to be on TV
to promote it. Its called an All Ball, it’s a ball that can turn into five
different kinds of sports balls. His fame is making him a bit uncomfortable,
especially at school. When Billy and his best friend Manny hold a contest to
get invention ideas, they find a great one. Now can Billy design it
successfully? This is a big worry, because Billy has a big secret about who
really invented the All Ball.
This is such a great book. There are many believable characters
with an intriguing plot that makes you want to brainstorm invention ideas
yourself. I would recommend it for 4-5th graders, the main character
is in middle school, but the cover is kind of younger looking. There is
continuing intrigue for a second book. I enjoyed reading this book and think
students will too.
