(4) 4-6 Stealing a car sends disobedient seventh grader Dylan to Papua New Guinea with ex-marine Uncle Todd in search of a downed WWII bomber flown by Dylan's grandfather. Defiant Dylan separates from the search team and finds himself in perilous jungle surroundings where survival requires suspension of his arrogant, impulsive attitude. Despite some predictability, adventure and pathos combine for a satisfying story.
