Off the Track: A junior fiction novel about finding yourself and falling in love with nature

By Cristy Burne

From award-winning author Cristy Burne comes a new adventure for young readers about falling in love with the bush, and with hiking and being in the wild. It's about disconnecting from technology. And discovering yourself.

City-kid Harry is doomed to spend his weekend hiking with his phone-addict Mum, her bossy bestie Ana, and Ana's kid Deepika, a camping fanatic who can't seem to stop talking. But Harry discovers hiking's not as bad as it sounds. Step by step, he and Deepika discover a new friendship-and a new confidence in the world around them. Then disaster strikes, and the pair find themselves lost. Or is it Mum and Ana who are lost?
