After a mishap with a kid at school, spring break has been cancelled for Scoob, he is sitting around the house doing nothing but feeling sorry for himself.
Enter G-Ma, with her plans to have the trip of a lifetime. She sells her house, buys an RV and sneaks Scoob and his still packed suitcase out while his Dad is at work. Armed with a copy of The Green Book, Scoob and his G-Ma begin a rollicking trip across the South and through their family history.
But when G-Ma insists that he not call his Dad, and begins to act a little more shady each day Scoob begins to worry that everything is not as OK as he thought it was.
This wonderful road trip tale tenderly explores the love between a Grandson and Grandmother while looking at the history of the segregated south through the lens of time.
The publisher recommends this book for children ages 8-12.
