If you have been keeping up with Recent books that have been published by the renowned author Carl Hiaasen than you know that he has just wrote a new book called Squirm. This book depicts the life of Billy Dickens, a kid from Florida who has not seen his father since he was 3 or 4 and had been worried about him. Knowing Billy (and the adventures that he is capable of), he sets out on a adventure that includes hiking a mountain, floating a river, dodging a grizzly bear, saving both a cat and panther and then on top of all of that he has to try and save his father. For this adventure, Billy is in the hot seat as he has to try to survive his own life and he has to find and save his father. The Biggest Question regarding this whole Adventure is: Will Billy Dickens survive?. Read this amazing book to find out.
Carl Hiaasen is a world renowned Author for some of his best pieces for both Children and Adult books such as the books Flush, Scat, Chomp, and Stink for Children. Some of his most popular books for Adults are as followed but not limited to: Bad Monkey, Star Island and Razor Girl. He was born in Florida and he now happily resides there with his family continuing to write great books.
One Technique that Carl Hiaasen often uses in his books is the technique of writing a short background to give readers insight of the characters. This helps readers understand the Story better and clearer.
I would give this book a Solid 5 as it is a great book in his series. I recommend this book to anyone who has never read any of Carl Hiaasen’s books.
