Synopsis

Henry Mosley decides that he and his pals Riley and Reed need to go on some earth-shaking adventures and make a name for themselves. Henry is the mastermind; Riley’s the researcher who’s prepared for anything. And somehow fearful Reed always ends up with the scariest, craziest assignments. Roped into wacky attempts to break world records, reenact scenes from books, solve a hundred-year-old murder, and carry out Henry’s other inspired ideas, Riley and Reed follow their fearless leader everywhere: into the wilderness, inside a bull-riding ring, into a haunted house, off the neighbors’ roof, and into a cataclysmic collision with explosive life-forms. Gary Paulsen brings all his trademark humor to this tale of fun and disaster.

Goodreads review by Lilly on April 23, 2017

This is a great book for students in grades 4-5 looking for an adventure book. Masters of Disasters is about three close friends who are determined to complete crazy, adventurous, dangerous tasks. The three boys all have extremely varying personalities and that is evident throughout the entire book.......more

Goodreads review by ❤Marie on September 21, 2019

This was okay but maybe a bit juvenile for me. I joined my daughter in reading this short book about three boys who take on several adventures. My daughter didn't enjoy it but I think middle school kids would like it.......more
