I totally can't remember the name of a book and I loved it when I read it. I can recount the story's main events but I can't remember the title! How sad is that?
Here is what happened. It was an adventure/sci-fi story with a boy and a girl. It started off with the boy and his family being "rescued" by aliens because their house was flooding or something. The aliens were really silver robotic orbs. Their leader was a golden robotic orb.
On the planet that they are located, if you eat a purple fruit and the soil of a planet you will become that main creature from that planet. The boy eats the soil from the planet he is currently on with the purple fruit and becomes an alien creature with one giant eye that can see 360 degrees.
The alien inhiabitants (not the robotic orbs) that used to live on the planet, the boy learns, were all destroyed at once with a White Hole (as opposed to a black hole).
The boy becomes human again by eating the dirt off of his shoe with the purple fruit.
PLEASE! HELP ME!!!
