The Hollisters have made it through ten countries, but Australia is about to turn their world upside down—quite literally.
After leaving rainy London, Jen, Doug, Bev, Madison, and Max arrive in a Sydney summer so hot that their winter clothes become a family emergency. Their new home is a tiny flat in Bondi, complete with a ceiling fan, noisy cockatoos, and a very large huntsman spider named Kevin. Bev needs a sun hat, Doug has to surrender the bread-roll “sun” he carried through customs, and the family discovers that Australian wildlife has a personality of its own.
Then Max meets Kirra.
Ten-year-old Kirra is a Bondi local, a Nipper, and an expert on surf lifesaving. Max makes a friend before the family has even collected its luggage, and soon he has a new goal: joining the junior surf lifesaving world he has only just discovered. Between beach flags, surfboards, races, and the dangers of rip currents, Australia offers excitement—and lessons that matter well beyond the sand.
Meanwhile, Doug is inspired by the volunteer lifesavers who watch the water and come to the rescue when someone is in trouble. He signs up for the Bronze Medallion course, determined to learn how to be the person who knows what to do. There is just one small complication: Doug is not exactly a confident swimmer. With Jen’s help, Marj—the formidable local lifesaver—and Bev’s watchful eye, he faces a challenge that may be bigger than he imagined.
As the Hollisters explore Bondi and settle into a new country, their adventures are full of mishaps, laughter, unexpected friendships, and moments of real courage. Beneath the comedy lies a heartfelt reminder: asking for help is not weakness, and there is still time to learn something new.
Hollisters Down Under is Book Eleven in The Hollister World Tour, a warm, witty family travel comedy about trying new things, finding your people, and discovering that the next adventure can change you.
