I am so not into animal books. I tried Redwall, but it was a definite no go. I read Tale of Despearaux and got through it, but it was not really my thing. So I was not really looking forward to reading a book about warrior cats, but I knew I should since it has gotten so unbelievably popular this past year. So I read the first book in the series: Into the Wild. And I have to say I was pleasantly surprised (not surprised enough to read the next books in the series however).
This is the story of a house cat (Firepaw) that goes to live in the wild. There are four clans of cats who fight for survival in the forest. One clan has decided to take over the rest of the forest and it is up to Firepaw’s clan to stop them. The cats act like cats and it is a believable representation of cats that live in the wild (for the most part) Great for the kids who like animal fantasy.
