Alvin Fernald, mayor for a day door Clifford B. Hicks

This review is from my eleven year old.

“Alvin Fernard becomes mayor and tries to solve Riverton’s problems. Yes, I liked it. There’s a lot of problem solving, suspense, and a hot fudge sundae!”

The Marvelous Inventions of Alvin Fernald door Clifford B. Hicks

Review from my 11 year old:

“Alvin invents a paper slinger and uses it to sling papers. One crashes into a window of the old Huntley House. He retrieves it and finds a burger wrapper. He knows Old Mrs. Huntley doesn’t eat take out. Alvin keeps going with new inventions to gather information. Deploys an automatic man-trap and earns the pride of his parents.”

He recommends this to 10/11 year olds.
