Ian and his parents are taking the orangutan, Abbie, back to the forests of Borneo to live in the wild.

This sequel to Wreck gives a rare insight into the destruction of the Indonesian rainforests and the habits of the endangered orangutan while telling an enthralling story. Ages 12+ and useful for units of work on rainforests and environmental studies.
