Hayden

Fourteen-year-old Hayden Faye has always felt a deep-seated aversion to the outdoors. To her, the towering trees and expansive skies represent a world too vast and unpredictable to navigate. Instead, Hayden finds solace in the confines of her home, where screens become a comforting escape from the natural chaos beyond her windows. The sounds of chirping birds and rustling leaves only serve to heighten her anxiety, making her long for the safety of her four walls.

However, her life takes an unexpected turn when her parents decide to relocate to a small countryside town. Suddenly, the very wilderness she has sought to avoid becomes her daily reality. Faced with unfamiliar terrain, new friends, and the expectation to engage with the environment she once shunned, Hayden must confront her fears and adapt to a world that seems at odds with her preferences.

As she navigates this uncharted territory, she discovers that there may be more to the great outdoors than she initially believed. Through unexpected friendships and challenging adventures, Hayden begins to uncover the beauty and wonder that exist beyond her comfort zone, ultimately leading her on a journey of self-discovery and growth.
