I recommend this book for 4-5 graders. This book will take you on some rough journeys with this girl, her brother, and grandfather. This author of this book makes you feel like you are in the main character's shoes. If you like books with adventures (and rough ones as well) I recommend this book for you!

Veronica Sparks is hitting the road! She has practically memorized Seize the Way: Ten Weeks to SuperSize Your Life! and she is going to shake the dust of her little town off her shoes and see the world!
Well, someday. For now she's hitting the road in an RV with her cantankerous grandfather at the wheel and her hyperactive little brother in the backseat. Ronnie's grandfather is a wind prospector, and they are heading across Kansas in search of a good stiff breeze. Okay, so it's not the trip of her dreams. But with her newly affirmatized attitude, Ronnie figures that travelling somewhere is better than travelling nowhere. That is, until her little brother manages to disappear into thin air. . . .
On one weird, windy, wild ride across the prairie, Ronnie discovers that there are some things you just can't plan for or seize control of—but that sometimes a little chaos is just what a girl needs.
