Description
Carl Hiaasen takes us deep in the Everglades with an eccentric eco-avenger, a ticked-off panther, and two kids on a mission to find their missing teacher. Florida—where the animals are wild and the people are wilder!
Bunny Starch, the most feared biology teacher ever, is missing. She disappeared after a school field trip to Black Vine Swamp. And, to be honest, the kids in her class are relieved.
But when the principal tries to tell the students that Mrs. Starch has been called away on a "family emergency," Nick and Marta just don't buy it. No, they figure the class delinquent, Smoke, has something to do with her disappearance.
And he does! But not in the way they think. There's a lot more going on in Black Vine Swamp than any one player in this twisted tale can see. It’s all about to hit the fan, and when it does, the bad guys better scat.
“Ingenious . . . Scat won’t disappoint Hiaasenphiles of any age.” —The New York Times
“Woohoo! It’s time for another trip to Florida—screwy, gorgeous Florida, with its swamps and scammers and strange creatures (two- and four-legged). Our guide, of course, is Carl Hiaasen.” —DenverPost.com

2By meh 41This book is funny! I am presently on chapter two, but chapter one was so funny! The teacher asks him to write an essay about... wait for it.... pimples!! Chapter one was laugh out loud funny!pretty good
4By hfgdfxfhgfit was a good book it docent take too long to read but it has a few boring parts but some really good parts too!!!Awful!
1By HerbasheenblerbThis book was awful in my opinion. It kept on introducing new characters and everything was jumbled up into a giant mess. It also did a horrible job of keeping me interested and I only read it because I had to for school. To be honest, I couldn't wait to finish it, just so I could stop being torturedGreat..but

5By Nomer2038To be honest, I read this book awhile back and have forgotten what's in it. This is good, because that means I can read it again without knowing what's coming next. This is especially good because I know I enjoyed it immensely. Being old can be such a blessing.Great Book!
