About the Book

The summer before Enzo enters sixth grade, his dad takes a job with Kap, a company cooler than Nike, Timberland, and Marc Ecko. Even better, he gets to spend the summer traveling with his father and the super-awesome CEO/designer/head of the company. Working out all summer, meeting new people, and growing up makes him come back a different kid--more confident and self-assured. But when all the other kids, especially the girls, start paying attention and treating him differently, he credits it all to his cool prototype Lucky Cap. Flirted with, more popular, invited onto the sports teams--it's all thanks to his Lucky Cap. And when it disappears, Enzo stops at nothing to get it back so he won't lose his new-found status...only to sabotage himself.

Review :
"The summer before Enzo enters middle school he has 'the most amazingest trip in the history of time, ' courtesy of his dad's new job with Kap, a major sportswear company. He spends a month staying in hotels, getting tips from pro athletes, and wearing the latest and greatest gear, including a one-of-a-kind prototype cap. Enzo believes that it is responsible for his amazing trip and his subsequent run of good luck upon starting school. He is nominated for class president, makes the basketball team, and is more popular than he ever imagined. His swift ascension to success and popularity isn't faultless, as he ditches his immature best friend almost immediately for someone he thinks is cooler. But overall, though, things are great, until the cap disappears. Suddenly, his luck turns and Enzo becomes desperate to find it before his life spirals out of control. Short chapters and plenty of humorous dialogue and descriptions keep the story moving at a quick pace. Enzo tries to figure out his identity and how to do what's right. The narrative also touches briefly on issues of marketing or branding, which could make for interesting discussion. Enzo certainly has his flaws, and they make him a believable character whose voice will ring true with children even when they don't agree with his choices." --School Library Journal --Journal
