Haunting, captivating and totally extraordinary. Into That Forest will have the same impact as Life of Pi , How I Live Now and The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas . This is the story of two girls lost in the Tasmanian bush, saved and raised by two Tasmanian tigers. Our story starts with an old woman, acutely aware of her own Imminent death, looking back on a lifetime ago when death stared her in the face once before. As we hear the story of these two young girls, we marvel as to how they could have survived in the wild for four years. And then we must confront the painful question: how do you return to civilization when something like this has happened? Into That Forest reads like a true story - it's in turn wonderful, truly moving and shocking. You'll never forget it.
