(Hardcover, 288 pages, first published in 2020)
Set in Thailand in 2018, this true account of the unbelievable cave rescue of the Wild Boars boys' soccer team is told in a heart-racing, you-are-there style. A Newbery Honor book.
Considerations: Certain passages of this book explain the Buddhist worldview and ways of meditating. According to Redeemed Reader, "Buddhism is the prevailing religion of Thailand, and most of the boys are practicing Buddhists. Coach Ek is especially devout, and his encouraging the boys to meditate and pray helped them to stay calm. One of the boys, Adul, is a committed Christian, an orphan taken in by his church." See full review here.
Ages: 10+
