Geocaching is pretty popular these days, and this book will tell you all about this fun activity. Along the way, it will take you on the emotional journey of a young teen boy and his friends, leaving you with an aching heart, a thirst for exploring your neighborhood, and a new perspective on poverty and homelessness.
Kirby Zigonski is not your typical teenage boy. First, his dad is missing, his mom won't tell him why, and they are about to get evicted from their apartment. Second, Kirby is a whiz with electricity, and can repair just about anything. This time, though, Kirby may have found a problem that he can't figure out how to fix. His two best friends (both girls) try to help, but Kirby pushes them away, drawing closer to a mysterious stranger that he *hopes* is his missing father.
Kate Messner never disappoints. Really.
