When Mike Longridge gets himself in trouble yet again, he is given a choice: juvenile detention or an outdoor program called Explore.

He opts for Explore, but soon finds himself wondering how he is going to survive ten months with the hippies and keeners in the program. He's never felt so out of place and is certain he will never get the hang of the outdoor activities. Will Mike go back to his old trouble-making ways or will he finally find a place to belong?

This short novel is a high-interest, low-reading level book for middle-grade readers who are building reading skills, want a quick read or say they don't like to read! The epub edition of this title is fully accessible.

      As an alternative to juvenile detention, petty thief Mike is placed in Explore, a program that teaches responsibility through outdoor activity. At first skeptical of the "Granolas" who like rock-climbing and back-country skiing, Mike soon discovers a safe place to grow. The swift plot rushes through the short chapters, but the first-person perspective allows Mike's character to develop.
