The Marvelous Inventions of Alvin Fernald
Whenever Alvin's Magnificent Brain kicks into action, it's time to watch out! For Alvin is always thinking up another marvelous invention. Maybe it's the Foolproof Burglar Alarm for his bedroom door, or a Sure Shot Paper Slinger for delivering newspapers from his bike. But there's no doubt about it, as his sister the Pest says, "Alvin is a genius!"
With his best friend Wilfred Shoemaker (Shoie for short) and the Pest, who always tags along, there is never a dull moment as Alvin unfolds the most brilliant plan of his career to solve the mystery surrounding the old Huntley place.

Alvin Fernald's Incredible Buried Treasure
Alvin Fernald is back! Not only back, but he finds himself in the middle of a mystery as exciting and
hilarious as The Marvelous Inventions of Alvin Fernald.
Alvin reaches back to the Civil War, at least figuratively, to bond with a boy who buried a
national treasure in order to save it. With the aid of the Pest (Alvin's sister Daphne),
and his best friend Shoie, Alvin solves a secret message to reveal
the whereabouts of the treasure. This is living history, bound with laughs galore.
Clifford B. Hicks has written another classic which both kids and adults will enjoy!
