This fast-paced story opens with Jay following his dad through the forest searching for Bigfoot. Jay is carrying his little sister and is none too happy about traipsing through the woods of the Northwest on a damp night. Things start to get interesting when the group begins to hear strange sounds in the woods.
A scary turn of events sends Jay running back to camp with his sister. In the darkness, Jay isn’t sure he can believe his own eyes, but takes no chances until he realizes his Dad didn’t make it back to camp. He knows he must risk everything to make sure his Dad is okay.
This story is seriously fast-paced and will surely engage reluctant readers or those interested in Bigfoot stories. The book is meant for middle school level students, but would also appeal to high school students. The publisher says the book is written at a 2.0. I like that Orca uses dyslexic-friendly fonts.
Thanks to #NetGalley and #OrcaBooks for providing a copy of “Bigfoot Crossing” in exchange for review consideration. All opinions are my own.
"Bigfoot Crossing" hits shelves in February.
