It really is an Ocean's 11 for kids!

Griffin and his friends embark on a plan to steal his card back from Palamino. However, he is swindled out of the card by a con man named S. In this book, Griffin finds a rare collectible Babe Ruth card that will be the answer to his family's money problems. Swindle is the story of a group of eleven year olds led by Griffin Bing, the man with the plan. It was also their required summer reading novel and I knew if we didn't do it together, they just wouldn't have done it. I used it for shared reading with my summer school friends. Swindle was actually published in 2009 and has been floating around in my class library for a while. ![]()
