Wandi

Reviewed By – Emmy W

A young dingo cub called Wandi is snatched up by a giant eagle and taken away from his family and mountain home. He is dropped, lost and injured in a human’s garden. There he learns he is not as alone as he thinks, and Wandi begins his journey of finding a place to belong.

Wandi is a amazing book. It is based on a true story, and I liked it from the first page. Favel Parrett’s writing hooked me in and I enjoyed learning about Wandi from when he is taken away, lost and alone to making friends with other dingoes and even with humans, who he used to fear.

Wandi is now the most famous dingo in the world, as he saves alpine dingoes from extinction. I was captivated by this book from start to end. I recommend this book for 7 years and over, though it’s a lovely book for all ages.
