COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Intelligence + Adventure submitted by Sara W on June 21, 2011, 1:12am I really liked the combined elements of mystery and adventure - the kids piecing together this ecological puzzle were real spitfires and I liked their fearlessness.

The family dynamic was interesting too - the kids "looked after" the adults while the adults handled their own troubles. The whole family had a lot of spirit and I loved the surprise appearance of another great character at the end.

The plot was well-paced, the story never dragged and it wrapped up nicely but not too fast. Plus, there's a couple good examples here to follow: getting along with a sibling can make for awesome teamwork and caring about the environment can be a lifelong passion.

Flush submitted by 22Alex on July 7, 2011, 10:46am A 12 year old boy is seeing some strange things in his town, and wants to investigate, but with his father in jail, his mother does not want him in trouble. Join three friends as they try to stop pollution coming from the waste from a boat club. A great story filled with action, adventure, and being grounded.

HIlarious submitted by rat hand on June 20, 2017, 7:41am ONe of my favorite carl hiaasen books, so funny

interesting families in Hiaasen's books submitted by camelsamba on July 31, 2017, 12:54pm There's one aspect of Hiaasen's middle grade books that I respect: he doesn't populate them with picture-perfect families. They're not necessarily realistic in every detail, or even always admirable, but they are interesting.
