Child of the Jungle



Mike deprofio
Block 3

The book I’m reading is called Child of the Jungle it is a memoir. The author is Sabine Kuegler. This book takes place in a jungle (danau bira) in Germany. The main characters are Sabine, Judith and Christian. This book takes place in the 1980’s Christian, Sabine and Judith are all siblings. Every chapter is a new event that happens in their life. Sabine is the main character and is brave, courageous, fun and is always looking for an adventure. In one chapter Sabine and Christian go deep into the forest and pretend they are related to Tarzan and swing on vines but after a while they got caught and got punished.
            I liked how these are kids who try to adapt to the tribes way of life. I dislike how some people would die and they would mourn for days or even months. My favorite part is when they go on a big journey to each different tribe to make peace with them.
            I recommend this book to people who like to read adventure books. I rate this a 4 out of 5 because I liked most parts.
