Why read it?

1 author picked Road Trip Rescue as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I am a grandmother (Nana) to nine kiddos, four of whom are middle schoolers. So, when I have an opportunity to read a book in the middle school genre, I grab it to see if it’s a book I’d like to add to our personal library for our grandchildren.

Road Trip Rescue did not disappoint. The themes of friendship, trust, and worthiness interlace with suspense and surprises, culminating in a story to take to heart. I’m always looking for action-filled books with wholesome messages to pique the curiosities of my middle-school-aged grandchildren, and Becca Wierwille’s book fits the bill!
