The Get Rich Quick Club

The Get Rich Quick ClubBOOK NAME: The Get Rich Quick Club
AUTHOR: Dan Gutman

This book is about three 12-year-old friends named Gina, Rob and Quimby, who want to become millionaires by the time they're teenagers. They start their own club to come up with different ideas on easy ways to get rich, but they couldn't come up with anything. That is until Gina said they might as well just sit in her yard to wait for a UFO to land and Rob yelled "That's it! We could make a UFO!" They then made a photo of what appears to be a UFO by throwing plates and other things in the air and taking blurry pictures of them. They took their best photo to the boss of a newspaper company who paid them for it and then they became famous and were on TV. It ended when Rob feels guilty and tells everyone that the picture is fake.

My favorite part of this book is the very end, when there's a huge surprise. I don't want to give it away, but let's just say that they don't end up with a lot of money, but they do get to see something very amazing that I think most everyone would want to see.

I liked the whole story because I thought it was funny how these kids made everyone think there had been a UFO.
