Product description

Go on an adventure with Katherine Rundell …

Winner of the Children’s Book Prize Winner of the Costa Children’s Book Award 2017 Winner of the London Book Fair Children’s Travel Book of the Year
‘I loved The Explorer’ – Jacqueline Wilson ‘Rundell is now unarguably in the FIRST RANK’ – Philip Pullman ‘Read everything she writes’ – Daily Mail

From his seat in the tiny aeroplane, Fred watches as the mysteries of the Amazon jungle pass by below him. He has always dreamed of becoming an explorer, of making history and of reading his name amongst the lists of great discoveries. If only he could land and look about him.

As the plane crashes into the canopy, Fred is suddenly left without a choice. He and the three other children may be alive, but the jungle is a vast, untamed place. With no hope of rescue, the chance of getting home feels impossibly small.

Except, it seems, someone has been there before them …

    When their plane crashes, four children are stranded in the amazon jungle. Now they have to survive alone. But was someone their before them? I liked this book. I would recomended it to people who like mystery and adventure.
