Description

Review

A wildly exciting adventure … One of our most talented writers for children ― Observer, Children’s Book of the Week

The tone is humorous and wise, the characterisation observant and true, and the story suspenseful … Reading this delicious book is like eating electricity ― Sunday Times, Children’s Book of the Year

Katherine Rundell just gets better and better. I loved The Explorer. On one level it’s a very exciting adventure story of four children fighting for survival in the Amazon – but it’s also saying profound things about human nature and love and loss ― Jacqueline Wilson
