Prepare to Soar: A story of determination, adversity and survival

By Zac West

They say bad things come in threes.

Just ask Lachlan Lynch, up-and-coming sports star, and part-time class clown of Drayton College. This was his year to shine. A stepping stone towards his ultimate goal; the Olympic Games.

However, the universe is against him. Twelve-year-old Lachlan must survive the scariest teacher in the history of the world, a school bully built like Thor plus many more horrible hurdles.

A story of resilience. Facing challenges and wrestling your inner demons. About getting knocked down but attempting to rise against the odds.

Will 'Leaping Lachy Lynch' be able to turn all these negatives into positives?

Dealing with themes of bullying, resilience, mental health, goal setting, sport, humour, music, loss, confidence and surviving the final year of primary school.

Includes teacher notes with over 200 activities.
