4.5 stars Another enjoyable story set in my part of the world. This review and others like it can be found at Lazy Day LiteratureNoah Underwood's father has ended up in jail for sinking a casino boat that he swears is dumping raw sewage into the harbor. But Paine Underwood failed to obtain proof beforehand and before they know it the boat is repaired and back in working condition. Knowing their father is telling the truth, Noah and his little sister, Abby, attempt to catch Dusty Muleman and his

3.5 starsThis is one of Carl Hiaasen's middle-grade books. Like the author's adult novels, it tells an amusing story while addressing the topic of environmentalism and conservation in south Florida.🌴🌺🐠*****Eleven-year-old Noah Underwood's dad, Paine, is an environmentalist who's very protective of the Florida Keys - where the family lives.

Nota bene: A tenacious book which addresses to one of the global issues nowadays - pollution.
