Emma’s Review:
In the small city of Perdido Beach everyone disappeared except for the young toddlers, teens and middle schoolers. All the teachers, cops, doctors etc. disappeared. Internet, phones and T.V are all gone. Diapers run out food levels go down and bullies take over the fayz (fallout alley youth group). As [if this isn’t] bad enough a creature lurks the town and animals mutate. Kids go wild stealing candy and setting fires. Crying for their parents no one knows where they went. Everyone over 15 disappears both the poor and rich kids team up. Will they survive?????

Entertainment Value:
This book is very entertaining because it’s all about kids and how they survive and team up against the fayz. Also it’s very interesting how they pick their leaders and I know you will love this breathtaking book about kids surviving.

Educational Value:
This book is very educational because there is a lot of foreshadowing throughout the book such as you have to guess what is going to happen next or if the kids are going to live or not. Also at the end of the book cause and effect happens and they find out how the adults disappear!
