Review # 1 was written on 2019-11-18 00:00:00 Brad Dare A great read! The relationships between siblings, parents, neighbors is wonderfully described. I enjoyed the realistic tension among divorcing parents and their children, and even among the children. It wasn't "prettied up" in a way that glamorized. The author created an adventurous summer that seemed plausible and yet kept me interested in what would come next. As a mom of boys, even though the main character is a girl, I would recommend this book to any male reader who is looking for adventure and outdoor reading material.

Review # 2 was written on 2017-09-25 00:00:00 Don Michaels Dad deserts his wife and two kids. The whole town is gossiping. So the wife decides to uproot her kids and transfer to another state just before school is out. Of course, the kids have a very hard time adjusting and talk her into letting them live in a rundown shack in the woods, with no running water or electricity, for the summer. So she drives the hour to town every day to her job and leaves the kids (ages 12 and 13) alone to fend for themselves. I found parts of this book that were unbelievable, but it did teach that you have to learn to deal with what life throws at you and move on.
