Calling All Kids Looking For Adventure

Are you looking for adventure, intrigue, and laughs when you read a book? Well, if you do I’ve got four authors you will want to check out if you haven’t done so already.

The first is the writing duo of Henry Winkler and Lin Oliver. They write the Hank Zipzer series of books.

Hank, if you don’t know him already, is the world’s best underachiever. He’s smart, He’s creative. He’s funny. His pencils are sharpened. His binders are bound. He wants to do well in school – he really does. He tries not to be lazy, like his parents claim he is. So why is he always getting into trouble?

Jody Feldman is another author you’ll want to check out if you’re not already familiar with her work. Jody wrote the puzzle series The Gollywhopper Games. But she’s got a more intriguing book you definitely want to check out called The 7^th Level. The hero, Travis Raines, gets pulled into the super-secret society – The Legend. No one knows who is in it. Or how they pull off the spectacular school-wide events they are known for.

Travis is given a mind-bending puzzle to solve. If he does he could become legendary among his middle grade classmates. That is – if he can stay out of trouble. Then comes the biggest puzzle of all: what if the messages aren’t from The Legend? Could someone want to take Travis down?

And the last author you’re going to meet today is Mac Barnett. Mac has a lot of books out for you to read if you like a lot of action with your adventure. One of his series is Mac B Kid Spy, starring Mac when he was a kid – and a spy. You have to read the books to see how that came to be.

Another series is a Netflix original series called The Last Kids On Earth by Max Brallier.

Thirteen year-old Jack Sullivan was just an average kid till the monster-zombie apocalypse occurred. Alone, he’s no match for the zombies. If he’s going to take back his town he’s going to have to build a team of whatever kids he can find. And find them he does – all three of them. Along with he own pet monster he names Rover.

Check out Jack and his friends and tell us what you think of Max Brallier and the other authors.
