Rex Zero and the End of the World, by Tim Wynne-Jones

(Grades 4-6)

The world is coming to an end. At least it might be. Everyone is on edge, and things in Rex's new town are not as they seem. Set in 1962 Canada, the Cold War is heating up and kids and adults alike are figuring out how to cope. On top of it all, a mysterious creature is lurking in the park and it just might be responsible for some strange disappearances.

Told with wit and humor against a bleak background, Rex Zero's story is surprisingly fun. Great for kids who enjoy mysteries with off-beat families.
