Year 6 Books – Willow Brook Primary School

For as long as people have looked for adventure, some have also found danger… And here are the stories of survival, gloriously written by David Long and sublimely illustrated by Kerry Hyndman. The author collected over 20 stories that take place in many places around the world, from various time periods, and with a variety of challenges faced by the survivors. From Juliane Koepcke, the 17-year-old girl who fell from the sky in Peru as the only survivor of a plane crash above the rainforest, to Aron Ralston, who cut off his own arm after being trapped by a fallen boulder in a canyon in Colorado USA (inspiring the movie 127 Hours), these stories are thrilling, chilling, motivating and incredibly exciting. Slowly his dad helps him to develop a routine that overcomes the pink and purple hairy creature, the slobbering sock stealer that stops him getting dressed, and the coiled blue grinning snake that steals his hairbrush.

Deși știa că trebuie să rămână pe loc până se oprește, el nu a vrut să își piardă locul în maraton și a alergat spre ce i s-a părut lui, cu nisip în ochi și în față, că ar fi direcția bună.
