Synopsis
When disaster strikes, the only thing you can count on is yourself!
It had seemed like the perfect California day. But as Joey Flores walked home from the skate park with his friends, the ground began to tremble, and Joey knew they were headed for trouble....
The earthquake that followed devastated their neighborhood, collapsing a nearby overpass with Joey and Fiona on one side and Kevin and Dylan on the other. Now Joey and his friends must rescue each other, endure the aftershocks, and find a new way home as the earth cracks beneath their feet.

About the Author
Marlane Kennedy is the author of ME AND THE PUMPKIN QUEEN and THE DOG DAYS OF CHARLOTTE HAYES. She has lived through one tiny earthquake, the blizzard of 1978, and a tornado that swept through Wooster, Ohio, where she lives with her husband and daughter. Though she is having a blast writing about disasters, she is hoping not to add any more to this list! You can find her online at www.marlanekennedy.com.
From Booklist
Finally Joey Flores’ mother has stopped treating him like a little kid. He can stay at the skate park with his friends Fiona and Kevin, as long as Dylan, an older, obnoxious family friend, walks with him back to their apartment. But on the way home one day, an earthquake hits the city. Joey and Fiona escape a collapsing on-ramp thanks to Joey’s quick response, but their friends are on the other side of the overpass. Joey stays calm, finds and rescues Dylan and Kevin, and navigates his way back home and to a shelter where he, his mom, and his baby sister await his dad’s return. Full of action and realistic friend dynamics, the story moves briskly. First in a new series of disaster stories, this holds strong appeal for both girls and boys and features a diverse cast of characters. A rare find in transitional chapter books, this one also works for older, struggling readers thanks to its real-life survival element. Grades 2-5. --Suzanne Harold
