Sam Appleby wants a plastic sword and toy lazer guns just like his friend, but his dad won't get him any violent toys. Instead, Sam gets a balloon and a sunflower, both of which are boring to Sam. But little does he know how helpful these items are when it comes to defeating a bank robber. I really the liked the way the bank robber is captured, very MacGyver-like. Great books for ages 5 and up.Reserve Beaten by a Balloon today
