Book Report


Here's another book I would recommend -- Life of Pi by Yann Martel.

It's about a boy who grows up the son of a zookeeper in India. When he's sixteen, their family moves to North America with some of their zoo animals, but the boat sinks and Pi finds himself in a lifeboat with a hyena, an orangutan, a wounded zebra, and a 450-pound Bengal tiger!

Sound interesting? Martel is an imaginative writer. This book was the winner of the Man Booker Prize for fiction in 2002.
