Author Chris Grabenstein contacted me & said that there will be one more book in the Mr. Lemoncello's library series!!!!

Mr. Lemoncello's All Star Breakout Game

Coming May 2019!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This is the 3rd & final book in this series. I'm kinda sad it's over! I really enjoyed this series overall & I would highly recommend both the audio & the regular versions.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In this final installment of the trilogy featuring the wacky Mr. Lemoncello & his amazing library the newly formed board of advisors get their chance to win big in the new game thought up by entertainment tycoon Luigi Lemoncello. This game is a little different from most of his others, it doesn't need a board but a plane or a train might do the trick.

The kids on the library board have to pair up & solve questions within the Alexandriaville, OH public library. Only 5 teams, 10 kids total, will get their shot to be in the race for the grand prize after the initial elimination round. The winning team will travel around the country & help Mr. Lemoncello promote his new Nonfictionator & his Fantabulous Floating Emoji game.

Of course our main character Kyle Keeley is included in the final pairs. The kids battle each other traveling to different location all over the country. They must answer questions about Michael Jordan, Thomas Edison, the Wright Brothers, & Emily Dickinson throughout the two rounds. But along the way they run into trouble.

Mr. Lemoncello is being accused of stealing the idea for his first game that made him a bazillionaire. He's also dealing with someone stealing the plans to his new hit game right out from under his nose. Could it be the rival game makers the Krinkle brothers from Kansas City? Or could it be someone from his very own library board?

Kyle along with the help of some fellow board members ditch the Fabulous Fact-Finding Frenzy race in order to solve the mystery & make things right for Mr. Lemoncello before it's too late! They'll have to ride in the banana jet, visit Mr. Lemoncello's Imagination Factory, & climb through tunnels inside the library to find the answer. But if there's no race does that also mean there's no winner?

Likes:  As always I really enjoyed this book because of all the books & library stuff, it's the best part !!!

This book had all the wacky & crazy fun that all the others do but also had a little bit more serious side to the story.

The audio reader was the same! I hate when they change between books, this series has the same reader for all 3 books.

The Nonfictionator was really cool! It allows people to come to life in holographic form so we get to see Michael Jordan, Abe Lincoln, & a few others. We also learn some cool & obscure facts along the way. I wish it was a real thing!!!

As always this book shows a classic JUV story line, good conquering evil, everyone being friends, etc.

Dislikes: The only dislike I have is that I want there to be more books in this series!
