A review by shaq
Kensuke's Kingdom by Michael Morpurgo

4.0

This was a re-read for me but one that I enjoyed just as much reading it for the first time, from the fascination of learning Japanese words for the first time, to the fantasy of how life would be if one were to be stranded on an island, and leaving me crying by the end of it.
And while some may find this as a children's book, it holds just the right amount of adventure, wonder, and a message relating to the dangers of the world and the unknown.
I would almost definitely classify this a must read for anyone expressing interest in reading.
