My favourite character in the book is Cedar because he is strong and tried to help as much as he could. I think it would be fun to be friends with Tabitha because she’s so nice and I loved how she tried as hard as she could, as well. One of my favourite parts in the story is when they found Max under the stairs of the hut. I liked this story because it felt like I was a part of it. It was like I never knew what was going to happen next. I think anyone who likes adventure and suspense will love this book!
