Survival of the Fittest

En route to visiting their father at a medical mission, two children and their teenage cousin narrowly escape death when their small plane crashes deep in the Peruvian rainforest. The plane's pilot dies in the crash, leaving Rus, Jodie, and Matt Cooper struggling to survive on their own in a lush but hostile environment. What follows is a harrowing tale of endurance, improvisation, and self-discovery. With its suspenseful plot, alternating points-of-view, and strong male and female protagonists, SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST is an adventure tale that will prove unforgettable to young readers.
