Gary Paulsen's most acclaimed work tells the story of 13 year old Brian Robeson. After his parents' divorce, Brian is travelling to the Canadian oil fields to visit his father. But, during the flight, the pilot of the two-seater plane suffers a fatal heart attack. Somehow Brian must land the plane and then survive in the wilderness with just his wits and a hatchet, a present from his mother.

Recipient of the Newberry Honor, this gripping story unsentimentally presents the reality of nature, its cruelty and its beauty.

The audio of the million-selling book - Pete McCarthy's hilarious journey in search of his Irish roots.

McCarthy's tale of his hilarious trip around Ireland has gained thousands of fans all over the world.

Pete was born in Warrington to an Irish mother and an English father and spent happy summer holidays in Cork. Years later, reflecting on the many places he has visited as a travel broadcaster, Pete admits that he feels more at home in Ireland than anywhere. To find out whether this is due to rose-coloured spectacles or to a deeper tie with the country of his ancestors, Pete sets off on a trip around Ireland and discovers that it has changed in surprising ways.
