Michael Morpurgo’s Kensuke’s Kingdom

A Michael Morpurgo Month Pick! “I heard the wind above me in the sails. I remember thinking, this is silly, you haven’t got your safety harness on, you haven’t got your lifejacket on. You shouldn’t be doing this . . . I was in the cold of the sea before I could even open my mouth to scream.” Washed up on an island in the Pacific, Michael struggles to survive on his own. With no food and no water, he curls up to die. When he wakes, there is a plate beside him of fish, of fruit, and a bowl of fresh water. He is not alone… “This book changed my thoughts on reading all together. It is absolutely brilliant and I’ve read it three times already and it brings a tear to my eye every time.” Ciera, the Nation’s Favourite Morpurgo Vote “It makes you cry, there is so much determination and spirit, oh it’s just fantastic!” Soph, the Nation’s Favourite Morpurgo Vote
