Except now that their parents are dating, these two have to find some common ground. Sutton and Luis couldn’t be more different from each other. A Field Guide to Getting Lost takes in subjects as eclectic. In this investigation into loss, losing and being lost, Rebecca Solnit explores the challenges of living with uncertainty. So Luis can only dream of daring adventures in the wild. A luminous collection of bitingly intelligent essays around the theme of loss, A Field Guide to Getting Lost is a unique volume by a towering modern intellectual. He’s allergic to bees, afraid of dogs, and has an overprotective mom to boot. Luis spends his days writing thrilling stories about brave kids, but there’s only so much inspiration you can find when you’re stuck inside all day. Which is frustrating for a science-minded girl like Sutton-almost as frustrating as the fact that her mother probably won’t be home in time for Sutton’s tenth birthday. Her mini-bot is supposed to be able to get through a maze in under a minute, but she must have gotten something wrong in the coding. A girl with a passion for science and a boy who dreams of writing fantasy novels must figure out how to get along now that their parents are dating in this lively, endearing novel.
