I really enjoyed reading Kensuke’s Kingdom by Michael Morpurgo. I like his writing style!
This book is about a boy called Michael. He was starting a new life on board a boat called ‘The Peggy Sue”. When Michael and his family were well out at sea, the boy fell off the boat along with his dog Stella. His parents had no idea that Michael and Stella had fallen over board. Michael saw in the distance, land.
When on the island, he met this strange man called Kensuke. Kensuke provided all the food the boy and his dog would need. Michael did not know why! One day, something terrible happened but in many days, Kensuke made everything better.
Michael was really desperate to find his family again. He wrote a letter, put it in a bottle and threw it as far as he could, out to sea.
Days and days had passed, suddenly he saw a ship coming towards him…
This is a book packed with action! I would definitely recommend it! It was amazing to read and I am thinking about reading another book by Michael Morpurgo!
