If you thought Ash Road was good.....,

This review is from: Hills End (Library Binding)
Then you should read this. As a result of an argument, a whole class stays back from the annual town picnic to help their teacher find aboriginal paintings in a nearby cave. While in the cave, a violent storm breaks out and the group get stuck in the cave. When they come out they find their teacher and classmate have disappeared and their small town of Hills End has been devastated by floods. Their fight for survival in a devastated town where no adult is around, their experiences and the things they learn about each other makes a book that you will not forget in a hurry. This is one of the best books I have ever read. You won't regret it!

Hills End is not for babies,

This review is from: Hills End (Library Binding)
The Amazon write-up lists the grade level for this book at Baby-Preschool. It is about 10-13 year old children stranded when a flood destroys their town. It is an excellent book with a strong moral lesson similar to Lord of the Flies. Definitely not preschool reading material!I remember reading this story when I was a teenager, and it stuck with me as a thrilling adventure book. Now that I am a grandmotherly school teacher, I am enjoying rereading it. I find myself identifying with the elderly school teacher who is saved by the children. |
