Kid inventor Danny Hoopenbiller is suddenly given the opportunity to answer that question when an accident transforms one of his birthday gifts into a giant spaceship. Taken with his family for a fantastical and mysterious ride throughout the cosmos, he discovers that there's much more to the universe than what's written in his textbooks.

About The Adventures of Danny Hoopenbiller 5-book series:

Danny Hoopenbiller, the titular character, is an ingenious young inventor. The 5-book series chronicles Danny's ridiculous inventions and heart-pounding adventures. His exploits take him through a diverse group of locations, from Earthly places like New York and Yucatan, Mexico to interstellar settings such as Foodland the Planet Seventh! Whether Danny's fighting for the future of the human race or aiming to get back home after a portal mishap, he always manages to throw in a bit of humor as well. Traveling through time, portals and wormholes, Danny teams up with a colorful cast of allies (e.g. POTUS, US Army, NASA, Albert Einstein's long lost daughter Lieserl, the Havocker brothers and his family) for adventures ranging from an exploration beyond the solar system to high-stakes battles against otherworldly adversaries such as Martians, dinosaurs and Dinozillas!
