The auther of No Coins, Please is Gordon Komran.Gordon Korman is a great auther, and he wrote his first book in grade seven.This book is about a juniortours group that has one trouble maker in it.The trouble maker takes off in a few different cities and makes a lot of money off sall buisneses. I highly recommend "No Coins, Please" - you will not regret buying it! The Bruno and Boots series are also definitely worth a read if you can get hold of them. In my honest opinion Gordon Korman's "No Coins, Please", "I want to Go Home", "Don't Care High", "Semester in the life of a Garbage Bag" and the two "Bugs Potter" books are MUST reads for anyone (young or old, boy or girl) who loves a good laugh and a book you can't put down. The characters are so likeable and the adventures so much fun, you'll wish there really was a "juniortours" and that you could go along on the ride! Along the way he comes up with numerous highly successful (and highly hilarious) money making schemes and before long has his whole tour bus (the "Ambulance") involved. He joins five other 11 year olds and tour counsellors Rob and Dennis on a road trip from Canada to Los Angeles.

The story is about Artie Geller an 11 year with a very special talent - he is the world's best entrepreneur.


Gordon Korman creates a world and characters so real that you wish his books were ten times as long. I remember having to take care not to read it in public because I kept laughing too loudly! I have since read it many times and still enjoy it just as much, even as an adult. I first read this book years ago when I was a kid and totally fell in love with it.
