The Wild Children

The book is about a 12 year old Russian kid, named Alex. His family was arrested and taken away. His friend, Katriana helped him find and decide where he is going. Alex has to go a place where it is safe to live and probably no one knows his family are arrested and he's not with them right now. The reason is because someone could turn him in and he could be sent to an orphanage which is not a easy place to live for him. He is considered one of the "wild children" because his family is arrested and taken away, nowhere to be found. He decided to go to his relative, in Moscow.

In my opinion, this book is attention-grabbing. It's because the storyline is out if the ordinary. The reason is that families are being arrested and taken away. He is also like a grown up who acts responsibly for his actions. He knew that he is in danger. The events are quite odd because of how the community acts. They are like prisoners who are taken away and the reason is a big secret. They also have to keep everything they know to themselves because anybody could be like a traitor. They know that there is no one that they can trust and lean on. The event that i liked the most is when his friend Katriana risked herself to help out Alfred. For me that's very heroic.

I think i can finish this book easily because the story is interesting. It attracted my interest of it's storyline and the events are exceptional. Imagine the one who is supposed to help you out is actually your "enemy". The revolution affected the story.
