jtesar - I really like this book. It is about a boy named Davey and Davey is a nice person who likes to read. His family is at Aszure Island on vacation. He wakes up with nothing to do and decides to go outside with out letting anybody know. He decides to wade in the ocean but gets caught in a rip current and goes a little to far! Davey has had swimming lessons and has been swimming with his brother. When he is out in the open he is blazed by sun and is lonely. He finds out too late that he isn't the only one out there. He is soon joined by a Tiger Shark and some Blacktips. WHAT WILL HAPPEN??????

Gr 5-7-Stuck in a hotel room with his parent and younger brother, Davey decides anywhere on the tropical island resort his parents brought him to is better than his room. He sets off to find a quiet place to read, until his family is up and moving. Deciding the lure of the water is too strong, he wades in too far and gets sucked out into the ocean by a riptide. Hoping for a rescue, Davey clings to a water cooler bottle to stay afloat, only to find himself in the company of sharks. The climax steadily builds as readers are pulled through the narrative via multiple points of view, including that of Davey; a tiger shark; and Brando, his adventurous younger brother. Overall, this story strikes a balance of suspense and action, all while interweaving intriguing facts about sharks. Of special interest for reluctant readers and fans of survival stories.-Stephanie Charlefour, Wixom Public Library, MI
