This sequel to Leon and the Spitting Image centers around Leon and his 5th grade class’ fascination with potato chips. With the help of his friends P.W. and Lily-Matiss, and his science teacher, Leon enters an international potato chip competition, all while seeking revenge on the class bully. Will Leon win the contest? Will they teach the bully a lesson? Great for grades 3-6. ( )

Leon is going into the fifth grade, and loves potato chips, collects them eats them to the limit where he can get sick. He had made a doll of a bully at his school over the summer of a bully that had been bothering him last year. Once he meets his friends at school who are P.W, Lily-Mattise he tells them that there is no worry's of being scared of Lumpkin, who is the bully of the school. Well they try moving the doll like they did to their fourth grade teacher, (which also moved her). It was a failure trying to move Lumpkin with the doll that he made. Leon finds out a way to get it to work from the help of his friends but he had to enter a champion chip contest over testing and tasting the chip, to find out what kind it is. He has to enter this contest to earn money for their plan to use against Lumpkin. He does not win but is given 100 dollars by the owner of a company of potato chips, for being brave to go against other people that had done this contest for a very long time. They do the plan that is needed, and accomplish everything. They get Lumpkin expelled. Leons love for potato chips pays off in the end. Leon is given an award from the contest owners that said,"Champion Chip". He loves his life know and so many people were proud of him.

My opinion about his book is good. The book was slow exactly the like the first one ( Leon and the spitting image) and it took a while for the author to get to it's point that it needed to get to in the book. There were a lot good parts in this book though. The parts are when Leon goes to the contest and wins 100 dollars, not by winning but someone had given him that. What I also thought was very interesting in this book was how the doll that Leon makes of the bully, when he moves the doll, so does Lumpkin. This book at some parts were very fascinating. Leon is a kid who is a big fan over potato chips, and it ends up paying off in the end. ( )

Leon and the Champion Chip by Allen Kurzweil is an awesome book about a kid named Leon who made a spitting image of a bully. A spitting image is a doll look-like that looks like a person that you are trying to control. The spitting image allows you to control the person. Leon enters a chip identifying tournament to get the money for the last part of the spitting image, and that is how he ends up earning the greatest chip award, the champion chip.

Before he earned the potato chip award, Leon spent a whole year learning about potato chips in science class with his science teacher, Mr. Sparks.

The author's intent seems to be that you can find science anywhere, even in potatoes. The reason that I think that this is his intent, is that he said so in an interview with his son on a podcast posted on his website. I also think that because in the book, Leon's science teacher asks the students what their passions are. For every one of the kids' passions, he describes the science in it. Like lever work and center of gravity stuff in a wrestling move. That's basic simple machine stuff.

This is a really crunchy read, that makes you crave potato chips. It has really nice pencil sketched illustrations. This book also describes a whole bunch of science experiments, like the Extermitator, a high-powered blaster gun, and the potato clock. The potato clock uses spit for its power. Did you know that spit conducts energy? That's the kind of useful science knowledge that you'll learn from this book.

This book is about a boy named Leon who collects chip bags and makes a spitting image of a bully to control him. Leon and his friends have to save his teacher from being fired.

This story is really good because it was really funny. The situations were funny. For example, Leon's friend had to dig through a garbage can. This was disgustingly funny! ( )
