Great book!
This book is amazing! This book is about true shark attacks that have happened in the 1916 (spoiler alert) At the end of the book Chet and his friends like Dewey go to the Creek and see a big gray fin Dewey was just staring at the fin why it was coming toward Dewey. Chet came in the water jumping toward Dewey to save him but in the end of this book all Dewey was saying to Chet was *Is it real?* Then after Chet saves Dewey they have to climb up and everyone is pulling them up then Chet still needs to come up and the big shark comes up and pulls down on Chet's leg until his friends pull so hard that the shark swims away 2 people were killed in the Creek. Then Chet sits on the sand looks at his leg and there he saw a bloody leg.
I love this book because it is about true shark attacks and it gives cool facts and things that have happened back then in the past.
I have 2 of the I survived books. They are so intresting. I even have shark attack.
I love I Survived books I read most of them and I have 3 of them. this is probaly my favorite out of the series or maybe the bear one. *gives five star rating*
This is a dangerous story with SHARKS. There are rumors is it, sharks are around them and people keep coming across them. I like it, and this is a pretty good book.
i am so scared of sharks but this is a good read
