Synopses & Reviews

Synopsis:

Keegan and Alex are the only kids in Leamington who haven't volunteered to help out with the town's annual tomato festival. In an attempt to teach them a sense of responsibility, their fathers put them in charge of the tomato toss. The boys decide it's their responsibility to add a little excitement to the event. They exchange the traditional wooden targets for human targets and, before they know it, they are running the most popular event at the fair. The excitement may be too much for the sleepy town and soon the tomato toss is taken to the streets.

Linnette, May 18, 2009 (view all comments by Linnette)
Teenage boys, live targets and bucket-loads of tomatoes: what could possibly go wrong with this situation? Skateboarding, town traditions, and annoying parents are all part of this story written in way that is perfect for middle schoolers. Splat is an exciting short book for young teens who can't read well and/or who don't like to read.
