What Parents Need to Know
About Flush
Parents need to know that this is an ends-justify-the-means kind of book: The heroes, young and old, behave recklessly, often stupidly, and at times illegally, but because their intentions are good that's portrayed as admirable. Also, as the main topic is the illegal dumping of sewage, there's a fair amount of potty humor.

A unique, wonderful novel!
This is one of my favorite books because it is one of the first novels I've read that actually talks about kids fighting against pollution. It's not that violent apart from where Noah gets beat up by some bullies and when Abby is held by her neck. It has a bad message because Noah and Abby sneak out of the house and lie to their parents. There is some occasional language but not too bad. Drinking is a bad thing in this book. It happens quite often. Other than that, it is a nice read and I hope you read it!

Amusing.
Funny, witty book revolving around the evils of pollution. A good read, but somewhat strange.
