What is And Now We Run about?
Jelly is dreading her first school trip at a new school, especially after her best friend turns against her. Lincoln, meanwhile, is excited to return to the hills he once visited with his brothers. But when extreme weather causes the reservoirs to burst, floodwater sweeps through the valley and their group is evacuated without them. Trapped and alone, Jelly and Lincoln must overcome their fears, work together and race through the rising water to find safety.
