It is a heroic journey for various different animals who experience both pleasant and unpleasant times as the exciting story unfolds.
The most important thing that I have taken away from reading this book is no matter how hard the journey appears, you should never give up.
I think this book is suitable for both young teenagers and adults.
I’m now really looking forward to reading The One-Eyed Beast, book 2 in the Montevivo saga.
