Cleo Edison Oliver in Persuasion Power

Persuasion Power is not enough to get Cleo Edison Oliver out of having to clean her room or do her homework... or even guarantee her little brother will behave at the sleepover she's planning. But when the glamorous, powerful businesswoman Fortune A. Davies announces a new website where "kidpreneurs" can upload ads for their businesses, Cleo knows she can persuade her idol to endorse her latest enterprise!

She and Caylee are already selling their Passion Clips faster than sno-cones on a hot Altadena Heights day. How hard could making a commercial be? Pretty hard, it turns out. And you know what else is complicated for Cleo? Getting the opportunity to finally meet one of the birth parents she's thought about so much.

Fortunately, a little complication never stopped Cleo Edison Oliver. And it won't stop her now! You can count on it.

With Cleo Edison Oliver, NOTHING is impossible!
