Gary Paulsen is fast becoming one of my favorite authors. He has written so many books, yet a new Gary Paulsen is always fresh and original. Road Trip is a quick, funny story about a young teen, Ben, who takes a road trip with his scatter-brained dad to rescue a border collie from an animal shelter. When they leave their house it is only Ben, his father and their own border collie, Atticus. A day later they have three more unusual people on the journey with them, and they are driving a school bus.
This book is co-authored by Gary Paulsen's son and told mainly from Ben's point of view, with occasional chapters from Atticus the dog. A great addition for the library. Will be easy to recommend to guys, especially to those who liked the Liar, Liar and Lawn Boy series.
