Star Jumper: Journal of a Cardboard Genius

Do you have a younger sibling who bugs you to no end? Want a way to get away from him? (or her)? In this short book by Frank Asch, Alex has come up with a solution and he tells us all about it in his journal. He says he is a genius and he has an awful lot of inventions to prove it. I like all the drawings in Alex's journal and it is amazing all the cool stuff he makes out of recycled objects. This book will get you thinking of inventions you may need.
