Take Me to the River

|
Book Summary:
Dylan travels from North Carolina to the Texas-Mexico border to paddle the Rio Grande with his cousin. A series of changes means that his trip is far less supervised than Dylan expected, and the dangers of the river are not all of the natural kind. Book Review: This writer excels in offering specific descriptive details about the natural environment, without ever making the reader feel bogged down by the description. Much like Go Big or Go Home (but in a different setting), this story is an adventure that puts teenagers in charge during life-or-death situations. There is enough character development to keep readers connected to the plot, and the pages turn quickly. A bit scary; well-suited for sixth grade. "Take Me to the River quote" |
