by Kristal Stittle (Author), Blacky Shepherd (Illustrator)

For eighteen-year-old Keith-- floating alone on a series of lakes and rivers, lost and without supplies-- his kayak is his means of survival. Solid ground means certain death at the scissor-claws of vicious invading creatures. What he needs is to find more people; but terrible guilt anchors him in solitude. A year earlier, when the creatures first appeared, it was Keith's choices that brought disaster to the island community that took him in. Now, it's time to take responsibility for his actions, heal his scars, and survive. Told in two alternating timelines, Kayak is a story of family, the strength we draw from others, and the strength we learn to draw from ourselves.
