About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is feeling restricted by rules or showing a precocious interest in how the world of money and business actually works. It is the ultimate 'what if' scenario for any kid who has ever felt smarter than the adults in the room. The story follows Artie Geller, a ten-year-old genius who turns a standard summer camp road trip into a series of increasingly hilarious and improbable get-rich-quick schemes, from selling 'No-Cal Chocolate' to running a high-stakes gambling ring in Las Vegas. While the plot is absurdist and fast-paced, it touches on deeper themes of responsibility, the ethics of ambition, and the hilarious gap between child brilliance and adult authority. It is a fantastic choice for reluctant readers who crave humor and a sense of rebellion, providing a safe space to explore the idea of outsmarting the system without real-world consequences.
