Title: Disappointed
Review: As a fan of Hiaasen's adult fiction and an environmentalist, I couldn't wait to read this book with my kids. What a disappointment. Sure, there's a story there, about a boy who stands up against the illegal destruction of a protected species - but the author seems to have replaced the outrageous humor of his other stories with tons of explanation and repetition, as if he's making sure kids might understand. Try reading "Notes from a Liar and Her Dog", or "The House of the Scorpion", or "Holes", instead.
