Review Detail

Wilderness is a fun tale about a family who loves outdoor adventures and Oktober who would rather stay inside. The illustrations are detailed and fun to stop and peruse. The book contains many fantasy elements that make you want to turn the page to see what will happen next once Oktober joins his family outside. Maybe if I could meet the Wilderness like Oktober I would be less bookish, but for now, it was more fun to read than to go explore for myself. Overall, the illustrations are engaging, and the whimsical elements will keep a child’s interest making this a good reading choice.
