Adventure Is Out There!

What if it was Ellie who went UP to Paradise Falls? Adventure is out there in this tale inspired by Disney Pixar’s Up from the New York Times bestselling series that reimagines beloved Disney films.

This deluxe paperback edition of Adventure Is Out There!: A Twisted Tale features a new spine design that interlocks with the other books in the series!

Sixteen-year-old Ellie McGill is fed up. Sure, for some, life in small-town America is idyllic. Nothing but picket fences and USO dances and holiday parades. But Ellie has long dreamed of towering mountains, tangled jungles, and most of all…traveling to the incredible South American landmark, Paradise Falls. 

Ellie thought these dreams made her strange, until she met her sweet best friend Carl. Carl is Ellie’s closest confidante. But things between them seem weird lately as Ellie grows increasingly frustrated with his quiet way of doing things. And is it just her, or are there new feelings bubbling up between them?

Then, Ellie begins her dream internship at the local zoo, where the flashy millionaire owner organizes an expedition to Paradise Falls to collect new specimens. But the star newcomer—a bird given to him by Charles Muntz himself—doesn’t adjust well to his new home, and Ellie is put in charge of its seemingly hopeless recovery. Carl advises Ellie to lay low, to not make waves. But that’s not something Ellie has ever been good at. And when she spots an opportunity for a rescue mission, she decides to take it. 

Will Ellie’s impulsiveness finally get the better of her? Or will she get the adventure she always wanted . . . and at what cost?
