Sachar, Louis. Fuzzy Mud. New York: Delacorte Press,
2015. 192 p.
In this fast-paced environmental thriller, fifth-grader Tamaya and her seventh-grade neighbor Marshall take a shortcut
through the woods on their way home from school. During a conflict with a
bully, they discover some "fuzzy mud," uncovering a corporate
disaster that will soon affect their entire town.
Alternating between accounts of the middle schoolers'
actions and transcripts of Senate hearings, this is a book that will keep
readers hooked while sparking lively conversations in classroom environmental units.
