Review

__Ellie's Review__ Downriver is about a group of kids who's life isn't what they want. They go to a program that is supposed to help them. When they ditch their guide, that is supposed to be taking them rafting, they steal his car too with all the supplies. They are off to the The Grand Canyon. On this adventure the get friends and trouble. I would give the book a four out of a five. The book was good. It was exciting and was overall a great book. The only thing that I didn't like about the book is that it had sort of a weird ending that was left open. Then I noticed that there was a second book called __River Thunder.  __ Make sure to READ!! __ Maddy's review and summary __ Downriver is about eight kids who are signed up for what they call "hoods in the woods". At hoods in the woods you experience nature first hand. Al, the kids giude, is really into his program, but the kids could care less. When Al leaves is van running the kids vote that they "take" Al's van and head to the grand canyon, leaving Al behind. At the Grand canyon the kids run into a few problems. Then somebody is starting to follow the kids in the grand canyon. Will the seven kids make it out of the Grand canyon a live? I would give Downriver 4 out of 5 stars. I give it this because there were parts where I loved it and wanted to read the whole in an hour, if I could. There were also parts that I found really boring. I also didn't like the ending. This is why I give Downriver 4 out of 5 stars.


==**I think this book deserves a 4 out of 5 stars!** **because the once you get closer to chapter 4 and 5 the book starts to gain more action! but the only thing i thought was different was the ending. I loved how the book takes place outside in the wilderness and in a lot of places like the Grand Canyon for example. Read __Downriver__ to find out why! =)** == = =
