Jeff Probst is best known as the host of TV reality show Survivor, but he’s a childrens’ NYT bestselling author now, too. Together with co-author Chris Tebbetts, Probst has authored a popular series of adventure thrillers for gradeschoolers based on the concept of four siblings in a newly-blended family fighting for survival after a shipwreck leaves them marooned and alone in the tropics.
This would be a great pick for commute time or road-tripping with the kids.
Stranded (4.5/5 stars, priced at 99 cents in Audible format TODAY ONLY)
It was supposed to be a vacation – and a chance to get to know one another better. But when a massive storm sets in without warning, four kids are shipwrecked alone on a rocky, jungle island in the middle of the South Pacific.
No adults. No instructions. Nobody to rely on but themselves. Can they make it home alive? A week ago, the biggest challenge Vanessa, Buzz, Carter, and Jane had was learning to live as a new, blended family.
Now the four siblings must find a way to work together if they’re going to make it off the island. But first they’ve got to learn to survive one another.
This is the first of three exciting adventures from multi-Emmy Award winning host of Survivor, Jeff Probst and New York Times best-selling Chris Tebbetts!
