The I Escaped Series: The World's Favorite New Escapes. Survival Stories For Today's Generation
In this stellar, impactful book, two brothers face the challenges of deportation to Australia in the 1800’s. A Notable Children's Release from bestselling authors Juliet Fry and Scott Peters.
In 1836, Thomas and his younger brother Jem are unjustly accused of theft in the bustling streets of London. Their punishment is harsh: exile to a distant boys' prison in Australia. They face a daunting sea voyage before reaching their new home. Along the way, Jem falls ill and becomes a target for bullies, prompting Thomas to step up as his guardian. Once at the prison, surrounded by the vast ocean and untamed Australian bushland, the brothers dream of escape. Despite the perils of sharks and the unfamiliar wilderness, Thomas's resolve to protect Jem and find a way back to England never wavers. On the run, they must escape detection, which sets the stage for a dramatic escape.
In the 1800’s, many of England’s poor were exiled to prison colonies in Australia, marking a devastating chapter in British history. This story captures the resilience and courage of those who lived through this challenging time.
Ideal for young readers who are fans of thrilling survival tales and historical disaster stories, this is a compelling tale of resilience and courage. The book delves into family struggles and broader social issues. It offers an educational exploration of deportation, bullies, peer pressure, and quick thinking, all woven into an engaging narrative.
"I Escaped The Prison Island" is the 12th children's book in the I Escaped Series about brave kids who face real-world challenges and find ways to escape.

The kingdom of Cornucopia was once the happiest in the world. It had plenty of gold, a king with the finest moustache you could possibly imagine, and butchers, bakers, and cheesemongers whose exquisite foods made a person dance with delight when they ate them. Everything was perfect - except for the misty Marshlands to the north, which, according to legend, were home to the monstrous Ickabog. Anyone sensible knew that the Ickabog was just a myth to scare children into behaving. But the funny thing about myths is that sometimes they take on a life of their own.
