The Darwin Expedition

The Darwin Expedition by Diane Tullson


Liam and Tej are in a car accident on a deserted forestry road on their way to spend some time snow boarding. Being the brave teenage boys that they are, they decide to walk out of the woods to civilization. Along the way, the boys spot some bear scat and begin to worry about a bear following them.

The boys are correct and they tangle with a bear, more than once. They also share the experience of Darwin’s theory, Survival of the Fittest. As the boys realize they don’t have a clue as to where they are located, one boy takes charge and realizes his potential as a leader.

This book was just okay for me. Teenagers might enjoy it more than I did.
