Flush Review
Flush is about a boy, Noah who wants to become like his dad, by following in his dads footsteps. To start, his dad is in jail because he was accused of sinking a casino boat after realizing the owner of the boat was flushing sewage waste into the water. Ruining the water quality and habitat of turtles and fish.
It is a good book if you want a lesson but humor too,(pg.45) such as " Next time you've got a problem just tell me and then we will sit down and talk about like normal human beings". The guy has a point. This has humor and a lesson in the sentence. Also (pg. 75)" A baseball would do the job"," I could tell mom I was tossing it around the living room when it accidentally (on purpose) hit the TV screen" This is sneaky and funny.
I would suggest this book to a friend because you never get bored, whether your laughing or really want to know whats going to happen next!The moral of this book is " if there is a problem and you know its way over your head ( too big of a problem for you) then tell someone, don't keep it to yourself." I would highly recommend this book if you haven't read it before.

My daughter Loved It - valkane -
I am trying to encourage my 11 year old to read more. I bought her this book and sent it to her at Camp. She loves it. It is the only time I have seen her sitting in her room reading. I love the author as an adult and apparently he is a hit with the tweens and teens. I haven't read it myself, but plan to.
Entertaining and fun for kids 9/10 and up - C. Curran - Clifton, NJ USA
Well, this was just a plain fun read. I think young readers (10 and up) would easily be hooked by the story and characters. The writing style is easy and natural, and full of humor too. Kids will love the blend of exciting action, funny lines, and interesting plot.
Now, as an adult reader, I had a problem with the believability of the storyline...I mean, the novel is meant to be 'realistic' fiction, right? But regardless of my issues with the events of the story, I wouldn't hesitate for a moment to recommend this one to kids who are looking for a fun and action-packed read.
Hilarious! - Stephan John -
Hiaasen is the closest thing to Tom Robbins I can find. Robbins puts out a book every 5 or 6 years. In the interim, Carl Hiaasen fills in quite well.
