"Off Track" by Bill Swan follows the story of 12-year-old Lucas, who struggles to find his place in the world after his father’s unexpected death. Devastated but determined, Lucas decides to join his school’s cross-country team, where he hopes to cope with his grief and rekindle his passion for running. As he trains, he faces physical challenges and navigates complicated friendships, particularly with his teammate Del, who has her own struggles. Through perseverance and teamwork, Lucas learns valuable lessons about resilience, trust, and the healing power of sport, ultimately discovering that moving forward means finding strength in his loss.
