In the summer of 1916, 10-year-old Chet Roscow is finally settling into life in Elm Hills, New Jersey. But just as he's making new friends, a terrifying rumor surfaces: sharks have been spotted nearby. When a prank goes too far, Chet finds himself face-to-face with a real danger lurking in the local creek. With no one believing his wild tale, can Chet find a way to protect his town before it's too late? Dive into this thrilling historical adventure that will keep you on the edge of your seat!
I think this was a pretty good book, and especially a good twist with what happens with the shark and Chet’s friends. The only thing that was kind of annoying with this book was how it was pretty predictable, like a boy who cried wolf type of story. Still, the author found a way to still make it interesting and add a personal element of Chet’s past. I would recommend this book to anyone aged 10-12.
