Chomp

Carl Hiaasen's book Chomp is a hit!
Mickey Cray's life is turned upside down all because of a dead Iguana. It falls on his head. All of a sudden Wahoo, Mickey's son is put into the fact that he has to find a job or else he won't survive. Mickey's wife is a foreign language teacher in China, so she is little use to the family. Derek Badger, a phony TV survivalist shows up to the two lonesome's door. Derek DEMANDS use of the Cray's "property". Mickey had always had a love for animals ever since he was little. Because of this hobby Mickey adopted to his family, wait for it.... A zoo. This what Mickey even loves more than his son sometimes. But when Derek hands up some cash to the two boys, they accept the offer. Wait did I mention that Derek is cuckoo! Derek starts acting weird around the animals... Like they are his own property. Derek's phony TV relationship with Mickey might break up a lot of fans and their likes and dislikes when they hit the swamp.
This book is great for people with a great sense of humor and who can piece together connections throughout the story.
