Reviews
“First-rate suspense with an original premise and an appealing theme… A good, solid adventure.” ―Kirkus Reviews
“Mystery and adventure propel this readable survival story that will hit the spot with Gary Paulsen’s fans and may also entice reluctant readers.” ―School Library Journal
“Part mystery, part outdoor adventure Hide and Seek should appeal to middle grade thrill seekers. Many readers will relate to Chase’s blended family, his desire to do something important on his own, and his mixed feelings about moving.” ―Library Media Connection

“Believable characters, credible subplots, and adventure with an air of mystery combine to form a heart-pounding young-reader novel.” ―Sunday Eagle
“I was so glad to see that Hide and Seek fills the need for an exciting adventure story that’s a bit mystery, lots of survival and suspense and a great read. I also really liked that the book uses geocaching.” ―Green Bean Teen Queen
“Katy Grant masters the adolescent introduction into the adult world through Chase’s gradual comprehension of how deep parental love can be. The tense filled adventure will keep young readers glued to their seat through the climatic end of the story. A definite recommended book for the middle grade reader.” ―Boys to Books
