Quotes from readers - "I think I learned more about survival skills... The author's explanation about the storm and the way they escaped was not believable, although the story afterwards about how Pi and the others struggled in the sea was fascinating...This is a must-read book and a must-watch movie for everyone... In my view, reading this book to help learn English is a very good idea. Overall the book is very interesting... a book that tests human imagination, faith and resilience..." |
