A boy tries to stop a rampaging robot in this "deliciously wicked
fun" tale by the author of The House with a Clock in Its Walls
(School Library Journal) When feared Yankees slugger Cliff Bullard
goes barnstorming around the northeast, offering $10,000 to any
local pitcher who can strike him out, Professor Childermass and
Johnny Dixon get a sneaky idea. There's a local legend about a
crackpot inventor who once built a robot capable of throwing a
baseball 110 MPH, and the professor thinks that if they find the
machine, they can win Bullard's prize. They discover the rusted old
monstrosity in an abandoned workshop and put it back together,
piece by piece. But when they screw in the robot's eyes and it
comes to life, they realize they have made a terrible mistake. As
soon as it's activated, the robot attacks, trying to kill Johnny
and the professor. Was it made to be a killing machine, or have its
circuits been corroded? To save the town and get a crack at the
$10,000, Johnny and the professor will have to tame the steel
beast. The adventure stories featuring Johnny Dixon, from the
award-winning author of The House with a Clock in Its Walls, are a
delightfully imaginative treat, and this book in the popular series
features "a unique plot, marvelous characters, and non-stop
suspense" (School Library Journal).
