The Vasylenko family are adventurers. They all love the wet and the wild, the thrill of exploring the outside world. All that is - except Oktober. He prefers the warm and safe comfort of the inside world, and for his adventures to take place between the pages of a book. But tomorrow, Oktober has to join his family on a trek into the slimy, grimy and climby wild, where he sees only danger and worry and fears a creature called The Wilderness! Failing to keep his wits about him could be dangerous though - it may even get him a bit lost. But perhaps getting lost is just what Oktober needs to find himself and maybe even make an unexpected friend.
