The Explorer
Katherine Rundell, Hannah Horn
After crashing hundreds of miles from civilisation in the Amazon rainforest, Fred, Con, Lila and Max are utterly alone and in grave danger. They have no food, no water and no chance of being rescued. But they are alive and they have hope. As they negotiate
the wild jungle they begin to find signs that something – someone – has been there before them. Could there possibly be a way out after all?

This book is about some children that are on a plane but the plane crashes and they try to find their way home.This book taught me life skills like how to make a fire and that you can make pancakes with caterpillars and you can use cocoa beans for chocolate.I really recommend it if you are interested in adventures and if you want to learn stuff about nature.

I thought this book was amazing because I thought it was crazy that some children got stranded in the Amazon forest without any grownups. And that when they met a grown up, he said they could have rat, tarantulas and bananas to eat. The little boy said the tarantulas taste like chicken with mayonnaise.

I believe that this story is an adventure book and I find it really interesting. My favourite characters are the main characters and I would recommend the book for people my age.

My favourite character was the "Explorer " because we didn't know his name but we new he lived there a long time because he knew all types of skills. I would highly recommend.

When children Fred, Lila, Max, and Con's plane goes down and the pilot dies, they must learn to live in the Amazon Rainforest, and learn to trust each other. When a map is found, the children build a raft, and sail, following its squiggles. When they get to 'x' they find a man and a lost city; El Dorado. They learn to fish, and the man becomes affectionate about them, almost like father and children. When an emergency accident happens with Max and some bullet ants, Fred must learn to fly the man's hidden secret, the PLANE! I recommend it to people who like historical, and mysterious fiction. If you think you're not a fan of planes, think again...
