Customer Reviews

Great read for the adventurer in all of us!

Angels of the Swamp is a great adventure for kids and adults. I am 33 and I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It has facts mixed in with the fiction making it educational as well as inspiring. The nature lover will love this story, especially those who have grown up close to the west coast of Florida. It made me want to move back to my little home town on the gulf and live like Taffy, Jeff, and Jody did. I hope to read it to my boys and awaken the adventurer in them.
