Sequel to Bush Boys and Bush Rangers. This is the fourth book about Greg, Bernie, Pete and John Cumberland, with two new boys in a six day camping adventure in the Wild Bush Mountains.
Upper Primary (9-12 years)+
Greg and Bernie, Pete and John Cumberland, with two new boys Kev and Sam, go on a six day camping adventure in the Wild Bush Mountains, and it counts as a homeschool educational excursion. For 441 pages you'll feel you're really there yourself, working up an appetite, cooking on a campfire, smelling wood smoke and sleeping under the stars - and outwitting the Tricky Trio who are thieves and firebugs.
You'll know the wild and lyric beauty of the bush - rugged ridges, tall trees and scratchy scrub, rocks and rapids, wind and water, light on leaves, cliffs and waterfalls, inviting pools, awe-inspiring distances, and the wonder of bird calls amid uncivilized silences...
Lots of pictures with
- 4 smaller drawings
- 8 full-page maps/sketches,

- 23 knots and their uses
- 7 double-pages of clear brief and easily learnt camping know-how
