The Wilderness War
Julia Green (, Bath, UK)
This is our place and we'll fight to save it! A summer spent in the place Noah and his friends call the Wilderness, is a summer spent making dens, sleeping under the stars, and toasting marshmallows over an open fire. It's freedom. Until one day their Wilderness is sold and set for development and their dens torn down to make way for houses. For Noah and his friends this means war and they'll do anything to stop the Wilderness being destroyed. From the author of Seal Island, this exciting new adventure celebrates the outdoors and the freedom to explore it - and with the exclusive, fun tips and ideas in the back of the book, you can make the best of wild spaces too!

This was such an amazing book. I really loved how it showed how passionate young people can be about nature. I loved how Noah and his friends sticked up for it until, finally the council decided not to turn it into houses. The kids are very influentual when it comes to nature and protecting it. I seriously (and I mean seriously) suggest you read it because it's just that good. My favourite character is Noah becuse even though he is shy like me he sticks up for what's right.

I liked that after they saved the wilderness they had a big party and Mr Moss came as well. I also liked that they have lots of different animals that come in to the wilderness and go in the pond Noah made.

I absolutely adore this book!! It is exciting and imaginative as well as giving a message - nature should be protected and not to be underestimated. This story recognises the importance of a green space and to me, it is really special. I would recommend this to everyone and anyone!! My favourite character is Holly because she is determined, kind, sensible and brave. 5 stars!!!

This book was amazing. I liked Noah and the crow because they trusted each other entirely. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys adventures.

I loved the description of all the animals. I also loved at the end how they won the Wilderness War and all their home-made weapons and dens.

I really enjoyed this book. The characters were smart and funny! I like nature a lot, and this book was all about saving the wilderness (a forest). My favourite character was Noah.

This is a very good book. It will appeal to people who love animals and wish to save the wildlife. It also shows you how important wildlife is to us. I really liked Crow - a bird thrown out of its nest as a teenaged bird it then soon becomes tame for Noah (one of the main characters). I recommend this book and give it 5 out of 5. :3

A brilliant story about a boy called Noah, his little sister Natalie and his friends Zeke, Toby, Holly, Anil and Asha. Every holiday they play in the place they call The Wilderness, which is perfect for building dens, playing games and staying up all night camping. One day Noah spots a sign in the night and it says 'For Sale'. He and his friends are distraught. Can they save their Wilderness??? I loved this book because I love doing the sorts of things that they do. I found it dramatic and exciting and my favourite part was when they went to the council. I'd rate this book 100/100. Read it!
