Sinossi
La strada è lunga, e loro non hanno certo una bussola a guidarli. Eppure quando partono, sanno che "casa" si trova a ovest, ed è a casa, dai loro veri padroni, che vogliono tornare. Sono due cani e un gatto: a guidarli nel loro incredibile viaggio attraverso il Canada non è nient'altro che l'istinto e un misto di coraggio e spericolatezza del quale nessun umano sarebbe capace. Le foreste sono popolate da feroci animali selvatici, l'autunno canadese è gelido, la fame sfiancante: da solo, ciascuno dei tre viaggiatori andrebbe incontro a morte certa, ma insieme - con la saggezza del terrier, la felina agilità del siamese, la resistenza del giovane labrador - costituiscono una carovana inarrestabile, tenuta insieme da una inscalfibile, straordinaria amicizia. Età di lettura: da 10 anni.

The Incredible Journey was one of my favourite stories as a child, although like many people, my first experience of it was seeing the film at the cinema. There is a later adaptation from 1993 called “Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey” , but the one which captured my heart was the original film Leggi tutto
Beware: animal lovers will need tissues! I don't know why this timeless story of two dogs and a cat just trying to get home should provoke such raw emotion. But it does, every time. The movie Homeward Bound is just as much of a tear-jerker. You have been warned.
Sheila Burnford's storytelling is great, if she pieced accuracy together and only re-imagined the time between eyewitnesses. She excelled at a complex task. I had a few quibbles. When I visit countries, I use their languages. I enjoy differences, unless they forgo vocabulary that keeps something cle Leggi tutto
