The Trip

This is an Apple Books audiobook narrated by a digital voice based on a human narrator.

Ten-year-old Thad Bulmer had been looking forward to this camping trip with his dad. Dad was a lot of fun, but often worked on his own projects, including restoring his Dodge Fargo truck. From the city, Thad was excited to explore the great outdoors with the chance to use his new knife that Dad had given him as an early eleventh birthday present. But the trip would not go as they planned, as nature has a way of interrupting the fun. Thad finds himself alone and in a very dangerous situation that he has to get himself out of, with no help from Dad. He confronts mortality face to face with a fierce desire to live.
