Rescue on Nim’s Island by Wendy Orr, pictures by Geoff Kelly, Allen and Unwin, ISBN 9781743316788
REVIEWED BY MATILDA, 8, WA
Matilda borrowed a copy of this book from her local library.
I read this book because I like all the other books I’ve read by Wendy Orr so far.
There are scientists coming to the island. So far Nim, Jack and Alex have kept the island a secret but now Jack has discovered something on the island and he wants other scientists to come. One of the scientists brings a daughter called Tiffany and when everyone goes exploring in a cave, Tiffany gets stuck …
Rescue on Nim’s Island is not a follow-on book from Nim at Sea, it follows on from the second Nim film (Return to Nim’s Island) instead. I was surprised that it didn’t follow on from Nim at Sea.
People who like to take risks will like this book because Rescue on Nim’s Island is full of risks. It would suit kids 8+.
