Chapter 1: Extreme Maximus Jump

CHAPTER 1 Extreme Maximus Jump
WHOOSH!

The wind whipped past Frankie's face. She held on tightly to the handles on her red saucer sled as she flew down the snowy hill.

Bump, bump, bump! She went over a patch of chunky snow that rattled her teeth and shook her brain inside her head.

Her big challenge was coming up quickly. Everyone called it Extreme Maximus. Once, a fifth grader had gone off it, flown three feet in the air, and done a flip! At least, that's what people said.

Frankie Sparks uses her inventing skills to build the best sled ever in this third chapter book in the STEM inspired Frankie Sparks, Third-Grade Inventor series.

Frankie Sparks can’t wait to enter the town-wide sled design contest. With the help of a team, she must design and build a sled using only cardboard and duct tape. And there are PRIZES!

Each team in the contest will be judged on:
1. Best looking sled.
2. Fastest sled.
3. Most team spirit.

Even though Frankie might know a lot about building a sled, it turns out she still has a lot to learn about building a team. With lots of twists, turns, and big bumps along the way, can Frankie and her fellow super-sled designers create a dream machine—and a dream team?
