Customer Reviews

We recommend this book to children who are computer crazy!!

This story is about a boy who loves computers who visits his GrandPa. GrandPa doesn't know a lot about modern computers but he owns the oldest kind of all computers. This book has a suprise twist to the ending. If you like computers this is the book for you.

You'll never guess what the computer is!

We liked the book very much. We liked the part when Ollie's Grandfather met him at the train. We also liked the part when GrandPa took Ollie in the shed and he could't find the "computer." The part we liked best was when Ollie's Grandfather showed him the computer.

You'll never guess a computer could look like this

In the story "Grandpa's Amazing Computer" by Ursel Scheffler, a little boy Ollie wanted to visit his GrandPa at his house. He went on the train by himself while his parents were at a computer convention. Ollie and his Grandfather discussed whether GrandPa had computers when he was little. Ollie kept asking and GrandPa gave clues, but Ollie couldn't guess what it looked like. We can't give the answer away and you'll have to read the book to find out the answer.We liked this book because it was interesting, well written, had a lot of detail, and had a suprise ending.
