Summary: Frozen Stiff
Review: Frozen Stiff

by Sherry Shahan

Cody's mother and her cousin Derek's mother are away in Juneau, Alaska. Cody and Derek plan to go kayaking and camp out on an island in Alaska. The two cousins lose their kayaks and are stranded on the island. They camp out on the island, but then they think someone is spying on them. What they thought was going to be a simple two night trip turned out to be a longer and harder journey. This is a really exiting book. I recommend this book to anyone who likes to read interesting, funny mystery books.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Frozen Stiff
Review: Sherry Shahan's FROZEN STIFF is a thrilling story about fourteen-year-old Cody, and her twelve-year-old cousin Derek's frightening excursion in the Alaskan wilderness. They start out on a seemingly harmless camp out and kayak trip. Looking forward to two days of blissful independence, the cousins right away are thrust into the harsh realities of nature. As they face one life-threatening challenge after another, Cody and Derek suffer physical perils in a struggle to survive. A believable story, I found myself in the wilds along with the strong-willed cousins. This book of adventure equals in excellence with Gary Paulson's HATCHET.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Frozen Stiff
Review: The setting takes place between Yukatat and juneau Alaska at least in the late 1980's. A girl named Cody travels with her cousin Derek to Juneau, Alaska from Yukatat, Alaska. To find their mothers who are shopping for supplies traveling by kayak. Trying to beat the rising current Cody loses her kayak in the current that had all their supplies that was needed. Cody gets a fever in which she almost dies but thanks to Derek she was calmed down. Cody goes blind from the glare of the sun off the salt water. They almost get to the city but, were caught in a storm. Imagery was used in this story because it creates pictures in the mind of the reader. I think that this is a very good and interesting book. When I started to read it I couldn't blink my eyes. I like the character Derek because it was cool how he took care of her cousin.
