About this listen
Carl Hiaasen takes us deep in the Everglades with an eccentric eco-avenger, a ticked-off panther, and two kids on a mission to find their missing teacher. Florida - where the animals are wild and the people are wilder! Bunny Starch, the most feared biology teacher ever, is missing. She disappeared after a school field trip to Black Vine Swamp. And, to be honest, the kids in her class are relieved. But when the principal tries to tell the students that Mrs. Starch has been called away on a "family emergency", Nick and Marta just don't buy it. No, they figure the class delinquent, Smoke, has something to do with her disappearance. And he does! But not in the way they think. There's a lot more going on in Black Vine Swamp than any one player in this twisted tale can see. It’s all about to hit the fan, and when it does, the bad guys better scat.

Critic reviews
"Ingenious...Scat won’t disappoint Hiaasenphiles of any age.” (The New York Times)
“Woohoo! It’s time for another trip to Florida - screwy, gorgeous Florida, with its swamps and scammers and strange creatures (two- and four-legged). Our guide, of course, is Carl Hiaasen.” (DenverPost.com)
He read it so well, I know I definitely could not have read that well!
It was so good to listen to and I will definitely listen again.
His voice is so soothing to listen to especially if you want to wind down.
I would definitely recommend this to anyone of any age ,it was completely child friendly and I loved it so much!😀♥️🧋

What made the experience of listening to Scat the most enjoyable?
Our whole family (aged from 8 to 48) enjoys Carl Haisson books, with their warm and resourceful child characters acting out funny eco-thrillers. Even though the story is well-paced and aventurous both my husband and I immediately felt sleepy whenever we started listening to this audio book- the narrator's voice is the most soporific I have ever heard- better than a fat whisky/ camomile tea/ relaxation tape at bedtime but a liability on a road trip.What three words best describe Edward Asner’s performance?
Soporific, soporific, soporificGreat story but don't listen while driving
