I liked this because a lot of it was in the swamp. It was mysterious and exiting!

It was a good mystery book and left me on lots of cliff hangers.

My favourite character was grace because she was shy but brave and that means she is a good person at heart and is willing to step outside her comfort zone. I would recommend this book to any one who likes adventure novels.

I found this book quite interesting because in a way it was educational since it was about climate change. In this book, there is a girl called Eliza and she has a sister called Avery. They go on an adventure in the deep and dark forest. Then Avery gets lost-and their cat Beau Beau-. I really enjoyed it. I recommend 100%.

This book brought itself into my hands because it a story of children who are willing for adventures (Like me!)and they then discovered that there's footprints of a mythical creature then they hatch a plan to find it
