review 1: I read the entire book and was not happy. The part of the book written as a small child is annoying to read. All the intentional misspelling is cute, but gets old really quick. I knew there was a twist at the end, but it was a dissapointing twist, kind of a let down and not very well explained. It is obvious that the father has some sort of mental illness, but I find it hard to beleive he can dig a ditch big enough to fool the kids into thinking they are on an island.
review 2: In a world ravaged by a great flood, Pa and his three children have survived on an island far from the horrors and sins of the civilized world. Raised on biblical teachings and their father's stories, the little family has settled into their roles as the last vestige of pure humanity... more. Into this idyllic paradise is introduced a survivor - a castaway named Will - whose very existence threatens to destroy everything Pa has created. As the children begin to unravel the truth behind the lies, Pa begins to lose his grip on is family. Twistedly brilliant. less
