We read this in class. Then we Skyped the author. He used to be a 4th grade teacher, so he tried to encorporate that into the book. Mvp is about a boy named Adam who is a loner that likes to surf the world..... on his computer. His mom is a chef at his "rich kids" school so he could go to school there. Then one day, he had a strange encounter with a man in a black turban, and suddenly he is racing around the world in 40 days without anyone knowing!!! I TOTALLY THINK THAT YOU SHOULD READ IT!!!!

Every kid's dream is to be named as the most valuable player. But how many ever dream that the game is a race around the world (no flying allowed) in just forty days? That's the challenge Adam faces in the great Global game. As the player for the Magellan Voyage Project, he competes against others for a four-million dollar prize! Trackers with blowguns and a nefarious baron don't make things easy. The winner and nominee for many state readers choice awards including the Nutmeg Award, the Sunshine State Award, and the Rebecca Caudill Award.
