Summary: Stranded
Comment: For my Amazon Book Review, I read the book Wild Man Island. It is about 14-year old Andy Galloway taking a trip to Alaska with a group to see the amazing humpback whales. One night, while the tour guides are asleep, he sneaks out and kayaks to the island where his father died trying to solve the mystery of the first Americans, and of course to see the whales in action. But on the way back, he gets caught in a storm, which takes him to Admiralty Island. What he doesn't know, however, is that there is a man on the deserted island who could help him, and with the help of his dog, Bear, leads Andy to a cave where danger, suspense, and mystery await him.
The author has written the book in such a descriptive way, it takes the reader into Andy's adventure: the woods, the amazing cave explanation, the wild man. It is amazing! All the details and explanations were so well written, it was like a mini movie in my head imagining what happens next in the story. But in all books, there are parts you don't like. I didn't really like the fact that there were so many details about what Andy thinks, I felt like skipping pages when some chapters were like that. Some of the information was too much.
I like Wild Man Island, because there is danger, excitement, and mystery waiting for me to read in every page. When I first read this book, I couldn't put the book down. It was so thrilling, I finished the book in two days. I thought to myself, this is an exciting book from the first page to the last. Every chapter I read kept
getting more and more mysterious and suspenseful. I rate this book with five stars. I recommend this book to all readers who like adventure and excitement all in one.
"Descriptions of woods, wildlife, and the spectacular cave formations Andy discovers have a ring of authenticity that makes his hardships and adventures as compelling as any of Gary Paulsen's." --- Kirkus Reviews
" A well- paced adventure, this novel combines survival saga, mystery, and archeological expedition.... Hobbs's renown ensures the popularity of his latest effort."---- VOYA

Summary: Wild Man Island Is a Great Book
Comment: I like this book. It's adventurous and tells a lot about the North. If you're going to do a report on the North I suggest you read this book. The three main characters are Gabe, a Texan boy who wanted to be close to his father, Raymond, an Indian (Eskimo) and is Gabe's friend, and Johnny Raven an Indian (Eskimo) and is Raymond's great-uncle. Two parts are quite sad, but the rest is very interesting. There are a lot of surprises, good and bad, but when I read this book I got hooked to it. It's a great book.
Rating: 5
Summary: Great!
Comment: I loved this book. It intrigued me until the end. The wild man was neat, and the storyline, survival details and history information was awesome too. My favorite part was in the middle, when Andy was in the cave.
