A cheeky, fun, and fast-moving tale of two Lebanese-Australian kids
who decide to escape their horrible babysitter by running away...to
the other side of the world. "Huda's sitting in the airport lounge,
fiddling with our tickets. I can tell she's excited because she has
a little smile on her face and she keeps glancing at her pink
digital watch. I can't believe we're doing this. I can't believe
we're running away from home. Well, we're not really running away.
We'll come back. We're running to our parents. On the other side of
the world." When their parents have to travel to Beirut
unexpectedly, twelve-year-old Akeal and his six siblings are
horrified to be left behind in Melbourne with the dreaded Aunt Amel
as their babysitter. Things do not go well, and Akeal's naughty
little sister, Huda, hatches a bold plan to escape. After stealing
Aunt Amel's credit card to buy plane tickets to Lebanon, Huda
persuades her reluctant favorite brother to come with her. So
begins Huda and Akeal's hair-raising and action-packed journey to
reunite with their parents half a world away, in a city they've
grown up dreaming about but have never seen.
