review 1: I read this book to my 9-year old son. He enjoyed it and asked immediately for the sequel. It's about a boy named Derek who would rather do almost anything than read a book (especially during the summer). He ends up finding stories everywhere, starting in his own attic. He finds a 10-year old newspaper clipping about a teenage girl who drowned on Martha's Vineyard. Investigating this story leads him to find out things about himself and his past.
review 2: Derek is excited about summer vacation until he learns he has to read 3 books over the summer and will have the same teacher in the fall. He is a typical boy who pulls off a lot of shenanigans and learns a lot about himself and others over the summer. Drawings on the side of the pages are incorporated as a p... moreart of a project he does. Interesting story and I can see students interested in reading it. less
