Theme
http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/7524260-take-me-to-the-river' >Book Review</a> Adventures lead to discoveries- I chose this theme because when Rio and Dylan go off on the adventure they come out with a discovery that Diego who they saw earleir in the book was not just a kid going to see his mom, he was a kid who got kidnapped and was stuck with Carlos the kidnapper and then the second time Rio and Dylan saw Diego they did something about it and freed Diego from the kidnapper.
