Fantastic fiction, riddles, and an apocalypse or two await. The editors of this book would like to warn you that though this book is mostly safe, you ought to still watch for pirates and stray evil computer code. Join a dog exploring a tunnel under a tree, meet an assassin iPhone, and learn how to survive a hike where everything goes wrong!

— Simon Traub-Epstein, International Library of Young Authors

Fourteen young editors, mentored by children’s author Rebecca Lim and publishing industry professionals, have put together a collection of adventure-themed stories unlike anything you’ve ever seen. The collection includes 15 intrepid tales and poems written by young Australian writers between the ages of 8 and 12, alongside a contribution from one of Australia’s best-known authors, Sally Morgan.”
