Book Summary
Running Wild follows Will and his mother as they seek a fresh start in Indonesia after the loss of Will’s father. A gripping middle-grade adventure about friendship, survival, and coming to terms with grief, this tale is written for readers aged 9–12 who crave action, heart, and a powerful bond between a boy and an animal. The tone is hopeful, adventurous, and emotionally rich, inviting young readers to root for resilience when life feels overwhelming.
The book unfolds with a clear, cinematic rhythm. What begins as a quiet escape soon becomes a pulse-pounding journey when a tsunami alters Will’s course and leaves him to navigate a wild jungle landscape with only the clothes on his back and a bottle of water, accompanied by Oona the elephant. Morpurgo’s storytelling balances moments of loss with steady courage, and the bond between boy and animal becomes a trusted compass through danger and doubt. The result is an immersive, emotionally honest adventure that respects young readers’ intelligence while delivering wonder and suspense.
After finishing Running Wild, readers gain a sense of resilience and connection, carrying the enduring bond between a brave boy and his extraordinary elephant and a renewed respect for nature’s power. It leaves them hopeful, inspired, and ready to face their own challenges with courage, kindness, and a bigger sense of wonder.
