Middle grade stories are a favorite of mine, offering a perfect escape from stress. Recently, I had the pleasure of reading "Sasquatch" by Roxanne Seubert, a captivating tale. The story follows Connor, who is troubled by his parents' impending divorce. He hopes they will reconcile, but the decision to separate has already been made, and he and his sister Penny are caught in the middle.
During a camping trip, Connor brings his dog Dax along. When Dax goes missing, Connor is determined to find him. Despite searching, they have to pause for the night, sleeping in their bags to resume the search in the morning. The following morning, Penny mentions seeing a bear at night, prompting their father, Joe Townsend, to contact Ranger Rick.
Ranger Rick has been dealing with reports of a mysterious wild animal in the area. He collects some red hair samples and takes them to Jones, a local hermit. Jones suggests the hairs might belong to a Yowie, Yeti, or Sasquatch. The question looms: is there really a Sasquatch at Money Creek Campground? And what will Connor and Penny do?
The book is expertly paced and kept me engrossed throughout. The author's descriptive writing brought the campsite to life, making me feel as if I were there. If you're looking for a thrilling read without any dull moments, this book is a great choice.
