Hide Robert John Bonney

A family's search for a son who won't return until they can promise to change the world. Burton and Maddy Franck's fourteen-year-old son, Seb, is gone. Their only comfort is knowing he won't last a day on his own before he is caught or comes home with his tail between his legs. Seb, however, does not come home. Hide is the story of a family desperate to find a lost son. It is also the story of a boy with an audacious plan to save himself. At turns suspenseful, comic and philosophical, Hide always returns to Seb's questions. How have we become so lost, so detached from nature, so stupid about a planet we depend upon completely? How will he, or any of us, find our way back?
