SOS Think it would be fun to get stuck on a deserted island with the guy you sort of like? Well, try adding the girl who gets on your nerves big-time (and who's crushing on the same guy), the bossiest kid in school, your annoying little brother, and a bunch of other people. Oh, and have I mentioned that there's no way off this island, and no one knows where you are? Still sound great? Didn't think so. Now all I have to worry about is getting elected island leader while keeping my crush away from Little Miss Priss. Oh, and one other teeny-tiny little thing: surviving. Get me outta here
Do you want to read about a class who went on a trip to clean an island but somehow found themselves stranded in an uncharted territory?

Imagine trying to survive with all those people. Getting along is hard enough, but looking for food, shelter, and boiling water is harder. If you want to see if anyone survives till help comes, then read The Worst Class Trip Ever. To track their survival then read the whole series!

My daughter read these books in a weekend. Something she really enjoyed and quickly. She should do the next reviews on the rest of the books I bought her.
Castaways#1 Worst Class Trip Ever
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
The story begins with Dani, a sixth grader, having a chance to go on a school/environmental trip to an island. Once they get to the island, they are there to clean it up for the animals that live there. As the story goes on, they are due to go to the mainland to go home, but instead end up on a deserted island. There teacher in charge, Mr. T, is delirious from eating too many "beetles" from the islands. So the children have to fend for themselves on this island. They are responsible for coming up with their own shelter, food, water, etc. Overall, the book seemed like a modern day "Gilligan's Island" which was run by children or an episode of a kid's version of "Survivor". It seemed cute from a child's point of view, especially with all the obstacles that the children have to overcome and how they go about it. This book was #1 one in a three part series. It would be interesting to read the others just to see how they manage to get off of the island and how long it does take for them to get rescued.
