Publisher's summary

When 10-year-old Derek and 8-year-old Sam move with their family to Virginia, they have no idea what adventures the summer will bring. As the brothers explore their creaky old house and the deep surrounding woods, they uncover a 60-year-old mystery of a valuable coin collection stolen from the local museum.

Join the boys as they spend their summer running from danger and searching the woods, secret caves, rushing waters, and hidden passageways for treasure and the rare 1877 Indian Head cent coin!

Great story, very compelling narrator

Would you listen to Summer of the Woods again? Why?

Yes. It's a story I could see playing in class for elementary school students.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Summer of the Woods?

When Derek got to the treasure chamber and foundd the metal box.

Which scene was your favorite?

I liked Chapter 3 where the dad teaches the kids about the coins they found.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Do you remember your first real adventure?

Any additional comments?

Tom McElroy's reading kept me listening. Great characterizations. A lot of charisma in his voice.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
