About this deal

Step into his world, read his journey, see his life change in every single part. Read as he helps the last wild find a cure for RED EYE. This story is about a young boy who is unique, he cannot speak anymore due to a particular reason but one day his life changes and his gift is revealed, he finally speaks, only not to humans and after this his life would never be the same again. I have enjoyed the first book of the series, I enjoyed the suspense and the hint comedy it had. I was an advent... The pigeons fly Kester to a wild place where the last creatures in the land have survived. A wise stag needs Kester’s help, and together they must embark on a great journey, joined along the way by an over-enthusiastic wolf-cub, a spoilt show-cat, a dancing harvest mouse and a girl named Polly. This is the first book in a trilogy. It's aimed primarily at young adults. Both my daughter and I read it. The story so far doesn't merit a trilogy. There is a lot of filler. We get the dystopian world in which it is set. We get it that the hero is mute but can communicate with animals. We get it that a shady corporation has taken control of the food supply after the outbreak of a disease among animals. We get that his dad is involved somehow and may be the animals last chance of a cure. Now get on with the story. Piers Torday began his career in theatre and then television as a producer and writer. His bestselling first book for children, The Last Wild, was shortlisted for the Waterstones Children's Book Award and nominated for the CILIP Carnegie Medal as well as numerous other awards. His second book, The Dark Wild, won the Guardian Children's Fiction Prize. The third book in the trilogy, The Wild Beyond, was published in 2015 to critical acclaim. His next book for children, There May Be a Castle, was published in October 2016.

THE LAST WILD is a whimsical tale, the story of a boy discovering his voice. It reminded me a little of THE LITTLE PRINCE,, maybe because of the cover and chapter heading illustrations, and because like that book, THE LAST WILD can be read on different levels. It’s one for both kids and adults. April 2013 Debut of the Month Do not miss this magical and astounding debut: The Last Wild by Piers Torday (yes mums and dads, his Dad Paul wrote Salmon Fishing in the Yemen) - a wonderfully imaginative tale of magical self-realisation and endless possibility. A truly inspirational book for kids that they'll love. It also introduces a bold new voice in children’s fiction with a story destined to be loved by readers of all ages. Perfect too, for children who love Michael Morpurgo, Eva Ibbotson and Roald Dahl.

A very good book, filled with excitement, this book is so interesting that I finished it a day after I got it! Also it has good vocabulary a and grammar that will help in the future. I can't wait to read the sequel! It is very interesting and really caught my attention at the start I really wanted to know what was going to happen at the end ...😃😊🤓 The extirpation of the wolves, which once existed in every part of these islands, is an oft-told story. I've not so secretly always wished that I could talk to animals so I've been enviously enthralled with Kester's journey!

Did you know you can flag iffy content? Adjust limits for Violence & Scariness in your kid's entertainment guide. Get started Close This book is really good because the story is interesting. The topic made people feel interested in it. Character/s Development: 3 STARS. Yay: This is my first time to read a story in which the lead character interacts with the animals 100% of the time - mammals, birds, amphibians and reptiles, name it, he can communicate with them effectively than human beings. It is almost a fable tale. Just almost.I absolutely love this book. It is a very adveturous story and is creative and the plot is brilliant.
