" Silly and satisfying. I had no idea what to expect from this book, but it turned out to be a Florida adventure with lots of shifting moments and expectations. "

" A slight but fun riff on reality shows like Man vs. Wild. It seems like a premise that he could have done more with in one of his adult novels, but it turned out pleasantly enough as a YA work. "

" I read this book because one of my students wanted to read it. He, as a fourth grade boy, loved it. I, as an adult, thought it was just ok. It is a good, contemporary read for reluctant boy readers. "

" This was hillarious! It's the first book I've read by Carl Hiaasen, but it won't be the last! It would be great for a classroom read aloud. "

" I enjoyed the quirkiness of this story. The book dragged a bit with some extraneous details. My struggling sixth grade reader had a difficult time with the vocabulary; this book was a challenge for her. "

" The man is a genius, twisted, but a genius. His kid's books are well written, not the least bit condescending and have great young protagonists. Green themes and honor abound but make no mistake, these are funny funny books. There are others, and you will want to read them too. "

" I enjoyed this book quite a bit. It tells the story of a Florida animal wrangler that gets hired to help a TV survivalist put on a show in the Everglades. He isn't what he seems and neither is his show. Lots of little adventures and humor. "

" Great airplane book, light and funny. Sometimes CH's book all resemble each other... This one is about a father son duo renting out tame-ish reptiles to a man vs wild knock-off tv production. "

" I definitely liked the second half of this book better than the first half. I felt that the first part of the book the story didn't flow as much as the other parts of the story and that the main plot had shifted a bit to much. It got much better by the end, though. "
