Are you somebody who is always broke? Does it seem that you can never get what you want? Well, if you are, this book is for you. The book stars a young teen named Mathew and his two best friends Joshua and Jil! who over reacts so much she changed her name from Jill to Jil!. They try all sorts of ways to make some money, and by the end of their summer they know that money does not grow on trees. The plot to this book isn't packed with action, but it does have some weird but funny points. Mathew and Joshua deal with new topics to them like girls and money. When the book comes to a close you'll discover that everybody gets what they want and a little more. The characters in Not For A Billion Gazillion Dollars support the well written plot. The characters act just as young teens usually act, weird. They all have unique quirks. Take Mathew for example, he is an eleven year old with an obsession with computer programs and bad jokes. His friend Joshua has a personality like the wind; it always changes. Finally, Mathew's almost girl friend Jil! which you already know over reacts. Throw in a couple sets of parents with their own problems and that makes Not For A Billion Gazillion Dollars a five star book. I definitely can relate to the characters in the book because I'm usually stressed for cash and have been in some pretty weird situations too. So go get this book and read it. It is hilariously funny and is one book you probably can't stop reading it until you finish it.

This book was great! It kept me interested the whole time and I didn't want to put it down. It is about friends that want to earn money for computer programs and to pay off debts. They decide to start a buisness, of making cards and banners for others. They are successful and are rewarded with enough cash to buy what thy have been saving for. It teaches kids about saving money and handling responsibility. Although, it doesn't have a very strong climax.

This is a book about a kid name Matthew and he wants a computer.
His mom and dad won't buy him one and they said if he needs to earn part of the money for the computer. His sister is leaving for a few days and he is going to rent her room out to any one who is willing to pay rent for the room. He also, wanted to kiss Jill and spend the summer with her.

This book was a tiny bit boring, but all in all, it was funny, entertaining, and realistic. I like the creative ways Matthuw and his friends think of to earn money.
