This story is about Jack and his sister sue going away for christmas vacation with their Uncle Bert but then they get into an awful crash that kills their uncle and leaves jack and sue on their own trying to survive in the australian desert or something. I didnt like to book too much. i thought it was kind of boring but the ending was happy.
