Booktalk #1 The Scouts are best friends who have done everything together since kindergarten. But now it’s the summer before their 7th grade year begins and everything is changing. Annie is the glue that is holding their friendship together and she plans a camping trip to watch the meteor shower in an attempt to keep the friends from drifting apart. When one of the meteors lands close by, they decide to set out on an adventure to find it. Their overnight trip quickly runs into trouble when they figure out that these are no ordinary meteors and they have to run for their lives from the crazy Mason mountain clan. (Sunshine State Young Readers Award Books 2020-2021) Booktalk #2 One summer night in 1985, a group of 6th grade friends who call themselves the “Scouts” set out on an adventure to find a crashed meteor.
