INTERMEDIATE FICTION
(4) 4-6 When a plane crashes in the Arctic, eight children survive and unexpectedly find themselves in a tropical jungle. Assisted by a gravity-altering device, they work together to find food, fend off unnatural wildlife, and determine how to get home. Despite unremarkable characters, the sci-fi technology, strange creatures, unfolding mystery, and an additional online component should keep readers invested and awaiting possible future installments.
