Story: Two city-bred siblings are stranded in the Australian Outback, where they learn to survive with the aid of an Aboriginal boy on his "walkabout": a ritual separation from his tribe.

A privileged British family--mother, geologist father, adolescent daughter, small son--live in Sydney, Australia. While on a picnic one day, the sibling get stranded in the Outback by themselves, not knowing exactly where they are. They only have with them the clothes on their backs--their school uniforms--some meagre rations of nonperishable food, a battery-powered transistor radio, the sons satchel primarily containing his toys, and a small piece of cloth they used as their picnic cloth. While they walk through the Outback, they encounter an Australian boy who is on his walkabout, a rite of passage into manhood where he spends entire months on his own living off the land. Their largest problem is not being able to verbally communicate. The boy does help them to survive, but doesnt understand their need to return to civilization, which may or may not happen based on what the Australian boy ends up doing.

After facing a terrible ordeal on the road, a 14 year-old girl and her 6 year-old brother set off into the Australian desert in an attempt to get home. The landscape is bleak with little or no food and water available to them. They meet a young aborigine who is on his walkabout - a coming of age time when 16 year-old boys must set off into the wilderness on their own to show that they can fend for themselves. He speaks no English but they nonetheless manage to communicate and he shows his new companions how to find water. Together manage to survive. As their relationship expands however, it leads to tragedy.
