"Readers will enjoy the page-turning adventure, the
quirky characters and the revenge factor. This book is destined to become a
favorite read-aloud for librarians and classroom teachers. It is a must-have
for middle school libraries." - Children's Literature. Probably this is the best way you can
describe the book 'Swindle' by Gordon Korman.
Plot of the Story: When 6th grader Griffin Bing finds a
valuable baseball card and he goes to a shop to sell it. When he gets home he realizes that he
has been swindled. The worker who worked there only gave him a fraction of the
money it was worth. So Griffin calls some of his friends to steal back the
card. And in return they each will split up the money evenly. Now, they have to
over smart the swindle. The gang of friends has to overcome an aggressive mean
guard dog, state-of-the art military security system and so on. In addition to
that the most devastating challenge is they are just 6th graders and cannot DRIVE! Will they be
successful or will they give up? To find out read the book. But I have some
better news to know about the story; you can watch the movie which will be
aired on Nickelodeon Channel. You can find about it HERE.
