I'm a 5th grade teacher and I chose this book to read with my students at the end of the school year. It had everything: humor, suspense, drama, and a satisfying ending. Each day leading up to the end of the year, my students would ask "Ms. K, are we going to get a chance to read more Styx today??" I will be adding this to my rotation of read alouds and I will also be checking out the author's other works!
