Book Reviews of The Incredible Journey
Book Review: One of the most heart-warming stories about pets ever written
Summary: 5 Stars
This book and the associated Disney movie was the talk of my elementary school. All of my friends praised them to the skies and while I have never seen the movie, this is the second time that I have read the book. It is without question one of the most heart-warming stories about pets ever devised.
Two dogs and a cat are taken from their home and sent to live elsewhere while their owner is on vacation. They are not happy at their new "home" so they depart on a trek across hundreds of miles of Canadian wilderness. The story of how they cooperate, receive aid from friendly humans and battle their way through so many obstacles to arrive at their destination make this an emotional story. Naturally, there is a happy ending. This is an excellent book for children that have and love pets.
Summary of The Incredible Journey
Instinct told them that the way home lay to the west. And so the doughty young Labrador retriever, the roguish bull terrier and the indomitable Siamese set out through the Canadian wilderness. Separately, they would soon have died. But, together, the three house pets faced starvation, exposure, and wild forest animals to make their way home to the family they love. The Incredible Journey is one of the great children's stories of all time--and has been popular ever since its debut in 1961.Fiction Books
