Adventure of Average Boy

This book is about a boy named Bob. He calls himself Average Boy, or AB for short. He gets into one scrape after another. Often his attention is elsewhere, which gets him into trouble. He maintains a positive attitude no matter what happens, which makes him very appealing.

The story begins on the last day of school before summer break and goes throughout an adventurous summer. His best friend Billy is often with him on his adventures, but he has some fun family occasions too.

He has several goals for the summer. One is to build a treehouse with Billy. Another is to invite everyone in his small town to church.

The author doesn’t mention Bob’s age, but he seems to be in upper elementary. It’s an engaging story that will captivate boys 8-12.
