Produktbeschreibung
A thirteen-year-old girl on a family vacation becomes stranded alone in the wilderness when the family's GPS leads them astray. A compelling survival story for ages 10 to 14, for fans of Hatchet and The Skeleton Tree. Francie and her parents are on a spring road trip: driving from British Columbia, Canada, to hike in the Grand Canyon. When a shortcut leads them down an old logging road, disaster strikes. Their truck hits a rock and wipes out the oil pan. They are stuck in the middle of nowhere. Francie can't help feeling a little excited-she'd often imagined how she'd survive if she got stranded in the bush, and now here they are. But will her survival skills-building fires, gathering dandelion leaves and fir needles for tea-be enough when hours stretch into days?
