Shortly before Pesach, my children saw in the Artscroll catalog a new book by M. Kenan, Wildlands. Immediately, they all asked if we could buy it. Having read M. Kenan’s other books, I happily agreed.
And I’m so glad I did. With the libraries closed and our other book order stuck somewhere in a post office in New York, this was the only new novel in the house, and we all took turns reading it. Fortunately, it is rather long! And it remained the topic of family conversation all Pesach.
With lots of adventures yet seriousness and depth, the book provided not only enterntainment but also much food for thought. My children and I highly recommend it for ages 10 and up.
