Cody’s friend, Gen, thinks she spotted Bigfoot living in the woods. The whole school hears about it, and they aren’t going to let them live it down. When Cody and Gen get caught passing notes in class, everyone gets stuck with an extra assignment. Cody’s dad tries to help him by sharing his password to an experimental program, EGOR. The program works great for the assignment. But then a blogger, named George Roge, appears on the Internet. George believes in Bigfoot. In fact, he's tracking the creature down, and the search is getting close to where Cody lives. Too close. Everyone is talking about George, even the teachers. Reporters and groups of Bigfoot hunters are swarming the town. Cody wants to avoid any more attention, but Gen insists on going back into the woods to rescue Bigfoot.
I usually love the stories written by the Larsons' as they are filled with a magic that draws the reader from the start. I didn't get that grab at the start of this tale but as I read on I found myself being drawn without realising it. This is a captivating tale with enough twists and turns that the reader is never bored. Yet at the same time you never find yourself lost and forced to read back to work out what is happening as you find with some tales that try hard to add a lot of twists. No this story has a balance that keeps the readers attention through-out. An adverturous tale that should keep any child entertained as their parent reads to them at bedtime.
