'Jake can't believe his luck when he finds a strange object at the beach. It is shaped like a banana, gleams like a copper coin, crackles and pops and is getting hotter by the minute. The story about a flying saucer crashing in Pelican Bay must be true and this is an alien object. There is only one thing for four cousins to do - take home The Find and study it in secret. Strange things begin to happen to Jake and the cousins have to figure out how to return him to normal before the grownups find out. But just when they think their problems are over, The Find's owner turns up and wants it back. It might have been best to leave the strange object where they found it...
'An alien encounter story for young readers.'
