Sinossi
Mentre sorvola la Foresta Amazzonica, un piccolo velivolo precipita per un malore del pilota. I quattro ragazzini a bordo sono illesi. Presto si rendono conto di essere soli: non ci sono adulti nei paraggi, nessuno a cui chiedere aiuto. Sta a loro trovare di che nutrirsi e proteggersi. Quando in una scatolina di tabacco scoprono una mappa che indica un misterioso punto X, si avventurano sul fiume a bordo di una zattera improvvisata. Il viaggio è più travagliato del previsto e, una volta arrivati alla meta, i quattro si trovano davanti una città abbandonata. Tra le rovine abita un uomo vestito in modo strano e loro cominciano a chiamarlo l'Esploratore. Non hanno idea che l'avventura è appena cominciata... Età di lettura: da 10 anni.

Two great stories are at work here. The first is the story in the book, followed closely by the story about how this book came to be. Let’s start with the story in the book. Katherine Rundell told Booktrust.org, “I wanted … to try to help children imagine the beauty of the world just a little more sh Leggi tutto
A very enjoyable middle grade with survival at its core. I haven't read anything that puts children in quite a dangerous position, and it was nice to see how realistic it came across for the most part. The realness of the situation was helped by the realness of the characters. I really enjoyed them, Leggi tutto
Well I can absolutely see why this has been so popular. It's a great lost in the jungle adventure story. I just couldn't warm to some of the characters. In fact a couple got on my nerves. I know I know! They are kids lost in the jungle and they are scared and upset so they are bound to get a bit whin Leggi tutto

Un libro con etiqueta de infantil, pero como ya dije más de una vez creo que los libros no tienen edad, fue una fantástica lectura, que devore ágilmente, trasportándome a la selva amazónica. Nos mostrara que todas las personas sacamos fuerzas de donde desea para sobrevivir, que a veces viviendo situa Leggi tutto
What a gloriously wonderful book. The completely absorbing story of four children whose plane crashes in the Amazon jungle, they are utterly alone and learn to survive using common sense and good luck. The pace is great, the things that happen to the children all seem to fit with the situation even
Katherine is one of the best writers in children's literature at the moment, and this is another tour de force from her. Lush, beautifully imagined, heartfelt, wildly exciting, it transported me to the Amazon and made me live with its characters until the end (although I was crying so hard during th Leggi tutto
This book would have blown 10 year-old Cori's MIND. A group of (reluctant) friends surviving with nothing in the Amazon? Sign me up! Super enjoyable, I will definitely be sharing this story with kiddos in my life.
