Interesting read ....... Highly Recommended ........... 5 stars

The Review
Far below the surface of the sea, Thudd the robot, ten year old inventor Drewd, and his thirteen year old cousin Judy have an eye-popping run in with Soggy Bob Sloggins. Drewd and Judy's top secret scientist Uncle Al just cannot stop inventing. Uncle Al's latest invention is the Water Bug.

Writer Greenburg has produced an engaging view into the underwater panorama world of the ocean. By combining humor, plain good writing, fast paced adventure and solid scientific fact `Andrew Lost' is a book sure to appeal to middle grade boys and girls alike. Without sounding like he is teaching; Thudd brings kids much information relating to the fascinating world teeming below the surface of the sea.




Fast paced, entertaining read. Happy to recommend.

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Under Water (Andrew Lost #5) (Paperback)

I liked Andrew Lost Under Water. I learned that giant squids are rarely ever seen. It was funny when the steering wheel popped out and the waterbug went on auto-pilot. It was also funny when the waterbug got lava boogers from an under water volcano in its supper sniffer. The water bug is a car that has a few adjustments to make it go under water. I would recommend this book.
