…Skink—No Surrender…is a kid’s book, it turns out. But that’s not bad. Hiaasen is good with kids’ books (see also Hoot, Flush, Scat, Chomp). What’s more, Skink himself, aka former football star, Vietnam vet, and governor of Florida Clinton Tyree is one of my all-time favorite characters, and surely one of Hiaasen’s best. So it belongs on our reading list, where it is.
