I read this book to my 4th graders. They insisted that I give it 5 stars. Here is why, straight from their lips..."A heart touching story." "It was thrilling with lots of drama." "It was exciting because when they thought everything was okay then a new problem would pop up." "There were a lot of surprises with the plot and characters." "The character all get to know each other because they work together and communicate."
