The Last Migration

LAST MIGRATION.

Pam Sartain

The Last Migration by Charlotte McConaghy is set in a future where more of nature has become extinct.

Franny Stone needs to follow the last of the Artic Terns on the migration that could be their last, all the way to Antarctica.

We are taken on flash backs on her life to see how she has been led here, to trying to get aboard one of the last fishing boats, and be able to follow the Terns, who will be following fish.

This is a very emotive book, with beautiful descriptions of the scenery.  I enjoyed the story, and the journey we are taken on.  It's a sad future with so few animals in the world, which I hope we don't ever see.
