{"product_id":"9781836284222","title":"The Burnscale Ramblers by Wil Gesler","description":"Biology teacher Miss Lily and history teacher Mr Granger are determined to drag six of their sixth-formers out into the fells and lakes of the iconic English Lake District. The students are vivacious Mel whose passion is literature; farmer's son Alfred who loves biology; somewhat fragile Natalie who detests injustice; boastful Brad who lacks a father figure; nerdish Jack who plays the jester; and tech-savvy Aisha, a refugee from Somalia. Gradually, Lily and Granger entice the students away from their addictive screens and into the outdoors, starting off with a gentle stroll around Derwent Water, and then moving onwards and upwards to longer walks and then climbs, all the way up to Scafel Pike. The book is an intimate, boots-on-the-ground, adventure story that deals with the nitty-gritty details of fell-walking and the feeling of what it is like to walk in the Lakes. Characters, actions, and places are closely connected with each other. The book is also a travel guide to the Lakes; a story of developing friendships; and an encouragement to everyone to leave their sheltered lives, take risks, and explore. It is a Swallows and Amazons story for our time and readers of all ages\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback \/ softback","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56307850346869,"sku":"9781836284222","price":10.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/7193\/3106\/files\/9781836284222.jpg?v=1762805536","url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/products\/9781836284222","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
