PAPERBACK
Author: Bear Grylls
Illustrator: Emma McCann
Exhilarating, confidence-building, and packed with pulse-racing action, THE RIVER CHALLENGE is the fifth instalment in the Bear Grylls Adventure series - perfect for readers who love outdoor thrills with real-life lessons woven in.
Jack loves the outdoors… just not getting wet.
Swimming? No thanks.
Rafting? Absolutely not.
But when an embarrassing tumble into a stream at activity camp suddenly transports Jack to a roaring river gorge in China, avoiding water is no longer an option. Surrounded by rushing rapids and hidden dangers, Jack must face his fear head-on - with the help of survival expert Bear Grylls.
As they navigate treacherous waters, Bear teaches Jack vital survival skills and, more importantly, helps him rebuild confidence he didn’t realise he’d lost. Step by step, Jack learns that fear doesn’t have to stop you - and that courage often begins with trying.
Ideal for adventure lovers and readers working through their own fears, Bear Grylls Adventure: The River Challenge shows that sometimes the scariest challenges can carry us toward our strongest selves.
Each book in this 12-book series from Bear Grylls follows a different child on the outdoor activity camp. Once they are given the magical compass, they meet the inspirational adventurer in an amazing place and learn new skills and facts they can take back with them to their real life.
