''Serious Survival'' is the companion book to the hit BBC children series Serious. In Serious Jungle, Serious Arctic, Serious Desert, Serious Amazon, and Serious Andes, groups of twelve to fourteen year old children embarked on extreme Outward Bound-style expeditions encompassing some form of environmental project as an additional challenge. It's been wildly popular, winning awards all over the place, and deservedly so. More than 30,000 teenagers auditioned for the last series. They've been led by some of the big names in this field: Bruce Parry, Ben Major, Polly Murray, and it's been fantastic, life-affirming, inspirational television.
My thanks to the nice people at Collins for sending the book.
If they really don't like reading fiction, you could also try the Science Museum's offering [[Why Is Snot Green]] and [[Crimebusters]] by Clive Gifford. You might also gain something from [[Six Days Inside A Mountain by Louane K Beyer]].
