//The Incredible Journey// is a tale about three animals, Tao the Siamese cat, Bodger the bull terrier, and Luath the Labrador retriever, who have the adventure of their lives. They are on a journey through 250 miles of Canadian wilderness to get back to their home and family. As they make their way, the trio encounters the hardships of basic survival. Along the journey, the animals must protect and help each other in many ways. They eat strange things like frogs and porcupines to give them the nourishment and energy needed for the long trip through the wilderness. Many fierce predators attack the three friends so they have to stick together and keep a watchful eye. Each animal uses its own strength to help the group. Tao’s stealth and quickness help get them food while old Badger’s intelligence helps find shelter at night. Luath’s youth and instincts lead them towards home. My favorite part in this book is when a ferocious lynx jumps out from behind a bush and chases Tao into a rabbit’s burrow. The lynx is angrily digging the ground to reach Tao’s hiding place when a hunter spots him. The hunter shoots the lynx, and Tao is luckily saved from the hungry predator. If you like animals and adventure, you will love this book. It is action-packed and filled with strategies on how to survive in the wilderness. You won’t want to stop reading until you know if they all make it home. It is an exciting story about a truly incredible journey. - Sellers S
