From the Book Overview: "It was supposed to be a vacation- and a chance to get to know each other better. But when a massive storm sets in without warning, four kids are shipwrecked alone on a rocky jungle island in the middle of the South Pacific. No adults. No instructions. Nobody rely on but themselves. Can they make it home alive?

Story follows: Vanessa Benson (13), Buzz Benson (11), Carter Diaz (11), and Jane Diaz (9)

Content Warnings: Blended family, shipwreck, almost drowning, no adults, deserted island, etc.

My review: This has been a much loved book for myself and my students. My favorite book to start the year off with. The kids always love the cliffhangers and dramatic moments. From start to finish, you will have a hard time putting this book down.
