Hit the Road

By: Caroline B. Cooney

Narrated by: Heather Henderson

Brit has had her drivers license only 11 days when her parents drop her off to stay at her grandmothers house for two weeks while they go on vacation. Little do they know Brit is headed for a three-state road trip with Nannie to pick up her college roommates, Florence, Aurelia, and Daisy, and bring them to their alma mater for their 65th and most likely final reunion.

A reluctant recruit at first, Brit is anxious as well as annoyed when she finds herself responsible for her fragile passengers. But things change as she sits behind the wheel up front and listens to the girls in the backseat laugh and reminisce about their 65 years of friendship. Inspired by their lifelong loyalty, Brit is willing to do whatever it takes to get the former college roommates to their reunion safely.

From best-selling author Caroline B. Cooney, a heartwarming look at friendship, both young and old.

Critic reviews

"Cooney masterfully combines nonstop, cleverly plotted action with heartfelt emotion." (Booklist)

The nostalgic take of a grand adventure.

classic story from when I was a young girl. Very find memories of my grandmother (rip) reading this to me. The story is engaging, funny, and loads of fun. So buckle up and enjoy.

Great Story on Several Levels

In the style of Cooney, this book has many twists and turns. I love the perspective and insight into aging.
