I saw that this book was being compared to
Holes by Louis Sachar. How could I
not read it? Nowhere is a tiny town that most people dream of fleeing. A group of kids form an unlikely alliance to satisfy a demand from the local bully and enter into the most dangerous local, condemned mine. Their search for gold yields more than they ever thought possible. It also often made me think of
The Goonies, which is one of my all time favorite movies. For 4th graders and up who love realistic fiction with a bit of adventure and mystery thrown in, you can't miss with this one.
