Everyone says Star is much too fast to be a sheepdog – but when your mum is a sheepdog champion, what else can you be? When a lamb goes missing on a field trip to Stormy Mountain, Star races up to find it. But she soon discovers that the lamb isn't the only one who needs her help.

Twelve-year-old Tam ventures into a moon bear den in the mountains of Northern Laos on a dare. His goal is to steal the cub and sell it, making a fortune for his family. But the mother bear’s unexpected return upends Tam’s plan, and he barely escapes with his life. Then his life implodes anyway, as his entire mountain village is forced to relocate to make room for a new highway. Lured by the promise of electricity, running water and a television, Tam’s people move to an overcrowded village, and Tam’s father is killed by a stray landmine.

Twelve-year-old Scarlet doesn't have an easy life.
