Sweet Friday Island

Sweet Friday Island Do you like mysteries? Well if you do Sweet Friday Island is for you. Peg Toland and her father Sam go on a camping trip on the coast of Mexico. They are all alone on the island or so they think. Strange things start to happen on Sweet Friday Island. They soon realize they are not alone on Sweet Friday. Peg's father said give me an empty jar, gasoline and some old rope or something. When it was all done he gave it to Peg and said you will need this. When Peg's father goes in to a coma Peg has to face her fears. Now she knows she and the crazy guy are all alone on the island with no way to get off of it. Sweet Friday is a test of Survival and Independence. When Peg realizes that there only way to get off the island is in her hands she has to step up and find a way to get off the island. She has to think of a way to let any one know that they are on the island and need help. Peg needs to think fast the surplus of food and water they had is almost gone. Her father is going deeper and deeper in to a coma. Peg remembers other camping trips but not one was like this one. She can remember saying I like a little adventure but not to this level. No boats go by the island so Peg has to think unique. Peg found a pan and went to the top of a hill and flashed it around no one came. She just thought why didn't I bring my cell phone? Why didn't I go to church? What was dad talking about before? And what is that noise behind me? Overall Taylor Theodore did a wonderful job on Sweet Friday Island. I would recommend this book to any one who likes survival stories. This story has showed me a lot about people. And don't always judge a book by its cover. Most importantly always have a cell phone

This book is a about a teenager named Peg and her father. Every year they go camping. However, this time they camp out in the wrong place. On a island in Mexico there is a crazy man in the area.

A few years later Peg returns to the iland one last time to learn that the same woman who warned they of the danger was that crazy man's wife.My favorite part in this book is when is when Peg goes in search of the man. She goes around the island and finds him in his hut. She lights the straw hut on fire. Somehow he is able to get away. then she chases him into a cave. she realizes he is trapped and throws one of the bombs. the blast seferly injured him.I liked this part because it got me excited. I forgot I was reading. All these images in my head. The text was very descriptive. The ending was fast and different from other endings.

I loved this book! I know want to get my own copy. This book totally captivated me in every way. It has an amazing story plot and climax. If Iwas the author I would have changed the ending though. It ended to abrubtly, no downhill climax. But still it was great. I would recomend this book to anyone who enjoys books on survival or exploring, or just likes to read a wonderfully captivating book! :-Þ

This book was fantastic. It scared my while I was reading and seemed so realistic. The end is excellent, too, and makes sense, while other books can throw you off at the ending or seem really stupid.
