Martel, Yann (2001 ). Life of Pi. Boston: Houghton Mifflin Company. ISBN: 0395977894
Summary: Life of Pi, by Yann Martel, follows the adventures of 16-year old Pi Patel. He, his family, and all of the animals from his family’s zoo are aboard a cargo ship moving from southern India to North America when disaster strikes and the ship sinks. Things become even more disastrous for Pi when his lifeboat becomes a refuge for several zoo animals, including the Bengal tiger.
Additional Comments: Life of Pi is an imaginative and suspenseful tale of survival in which Pi examines not only his place in the immediate surroundings of the lifeboat but also on a philosophical level, his place in the universe as well.
