The Screech Owls' Northern Adventure sportsman's I liked the story It held together fairly well The writing was OK it is not complicated prose that s for sure However it is also pitched at teens or tweens so you can t write it too complexly You also can t have too complex of a plot only two or three threads to follow or the kiddos forget about them So I ll give a pass on that too The characterization was somewhat spotty though The coach Muck is presented as a stoic guy but he gets choked up when the kids return OK so that my be due to relief at their rescue I ll give them that But Nish going from not wanting to be at the tournament to being the star player in the tournament I think needs a little explanation Still the guys are growing on me I just wonder how long Mr MacGregor can keep the kids on the team they are supposed to age out and I know the series is 23 books long maybe I will find out if these stories keep my son s interest Paperback This is the third installment to the Screech Owls series In The Screech Owls Northern Adventure the team travels to James Bay where they get to experience life with the native families At first they have a lot of fun but soon enough Travis Nish Liz Jesse and Jesse s cousin Rachel get stranded overnight in the great white north Paperback
