National Geographic welcomes you to Australia, the only country that's also a continent: • Australia's landscape varies from endless sun-baked horizons to dense tropical rainforest to chilly southern beaches. • The Commonwealth of Australia is a constitutional monarchy and has a parliamentary system of government. • Australia's population has quadrupled since WWI, with most Australians descended from immigrants, the majority from Great Britain and Ireland. • The indigenous population is also increasing, and perceived racial inequality is an ongoing political problem. • With a robust internationally competitive economy, long-term concerns include pollution, particularly depletion of the ozone layer, and management and conservation of coastal areas, especially the Great Barrier Reef.National Geographic supports K-12 educators with ELA Common Core Resources.Visit www.natgeoed.org/commoncore for more information.

Book two of the "McKay McDaniel" pathfinder trilogy. After safely guiding the husband and wife to the meadowlands, pathfinder McKay McDaniel enters the forest to return to his home when he hears a cry for help. He knows it is dangerous to leave the path, but there is something familiar about the faint cry he hears coming from deep within the forest. He then does something a pathfinder never does. McKay McDaniel leaves the path and follows the cry for help, deep into the very nest of the Natrass!
