Oh my goodness, reading Chomp is like watching a
movie in your head. Realistically
I know I’m sitting on my swing under the maple tree in my backyard, but in my
head I’m in the Everglades in the middle of a thunderstorm. I’m speeding through the swamp on an airboat
with Wahoo, Tuna and Link while a crazed lunatic is chasing us. The mosquitoes are swarming and
biting…oh wait, that part’s real.
Seriously, I cannot put this book down; I will be highly recommending it
to all my students this fall. This
story has it all: action,
adventure, lovable wild animals (wouldn’t you love to take a swim with Alice
the alligator?), villains, good guys, and even a little romance thrown in just
for fun. Has anyone decided to
make this into a movie yet? If not,
someone definitely needs to send a copy of the book to Disney or Pixar.
