He has also written two popular chapter books for children: LEON AND THE SPITTING IMAGE and LEON AND THE CHAMPION CHIP. In 2003, Allen teamed up with his 9-year-son Max to explore the scientific potential of the potato chip. That collaboration resulted in publication of POTATO CHIP SCIENCE
Genre: Children | Realistic Fiction
1. Leon and the Spitting Image – Leon and the Spitting Image is about a hotel full of animals. It’s about an evil ice maker. It’s about glass eyeballs and human catapults. It’s about really old panty hose and Possibly Fake Hair.
But mostly it’s about Leon Zeisel and his epic quest to survive fourth grade. What’s stopping him? Two things. First, there’s Miss Hagmeyer. She’s a supernaturally strict teacher with ears that resemble giant rotting mushrooms. And then there is Leon’s archenemy, Lumpkin the Pumpkin, a human tank with a deadly dodgeball throw known to all as the sidewinder.
Luckily, Leon has two friends, Lily-Matisse and P.W., who will stand by him no matter what — even if his magical, mysterious plans for rescue and revenge involve … SPIT!
2. Leon and the Champion Chip – Leon’s back. Having survived the sweatshop methods of Miss Hagmeyer, his needle-wielding fourth grade teacher at the Classical School, Leon braces himself for fifth grade. He arrives armed with a backpack full of pens and pencils, binders and notebooks . . . plus a rag doll that’s the spitting image of Henry Lumpkin, the bully who has Leon in his sights. If the doll works the way it’s supposed to, Leon (and his buddies P.W. and Lily-Matisse) won’t have to worry about Lumpkin the Pumpkin!
Better still, Leon has a fabulous new teacher, Mr. Sparks, who conducts science experiments using that most miraculous of research materials — the potato chip. And a good thing, too. Mr. Sparks’s lab work will come in handy when Leon is forced to take on Alphonse "The Chippopotamus" Cipollini at the annual Chipapalooza! Chip-Off.
Once you’ve sunk your teeth into Leon and the Champion Chip, the hilarious sequel to Leon and the Spitting Image, you’ll never eat potato chips the same way again!
