Into the Wild book review


Hunter, Erin, Into the Wild. New York: Scholastic Inc., 2003.






Into the Wild is the first book in the 6-book series, "Warriors." The series is about Trust.

This book is about four clans that have shared territory for generations. Firepaw, a young tabby apprentice, lays paws on trying to find the future. The clan cats dislike Firepaw because he is a kittypet, they say. Firepaw tries to find the enemy and realises it is ShadowClan. Firepaw lost one whom he loved ... Spottedleaf. Ravenpaw and Bluestar lost Redtail. Graypaw lost Lionheart.

Firepaw was a kittypet because he lived with twolegs, aka humans. His name was Rusty, a normal housecat.

In the end, Fireheart thought that Tigerclaw was the enemy.

This is Aidan's favourite passage from the book: "'Did they fight well, Whitestorm?' she asked. 'Like warriors,' Whitestorm replied solemnly. Bluestar met his yellow-eyed gaze and gave a slight nod. ... Then by the powers of StarClan, I give you your warrior names. Graypaw, from this moment, you'll be known as Graystripe. StarClan honours your bravery and your strength. ... Bluestar stood and studied Firepaw for a long moment before speaking. Firepaw, from this moment, you will be known as Fireheart. StarClan honours your bravery and your strength, and we welcome you as a full warrior of ThunderClan.'"
