The vivid descriptions of the Florida environment really brought the story to life. I wonder if the author has a personal connection to the area or wanted to highlight its ecological issues.

While I cheered for their bravery, the way they sometimes bend the rules made me wonder about the line between right and wrong in activism.

The book manages to be funny and serious at the same time, which kept me engaged. I'm curious if the tone was a conscious choice to appeal to middle-grade readers.
