Customer Reviews

Takes you away and show you true love.

Sarah is enchanted by Mako and they lead a very real like and magical adventure that will find your hearts centre. If you have never seen New Zealand then this is the way to imagine it. But do not be discouraged by the sloppy stuff there isn't much at all and the adventures are what blows you away.

Flight of The Albitross

Flight of The Albitross is a very powerful book. It's message is very serious, and the book itself is one very much worth reading. A Maori boy of New Zeland and a Caucasion girl from New York fall deeply in love while helping to save an injured albitross. But racial controversies cause onlookers of the relationship to wonder, and the injured albitross becomes sick. Will Mako, Sara, and the albitross overcome their own personal hardships, or will the summer end only in disaster?
