The Fort by Gordon Korman
After a fierce storm knocks down trees in the woods, a group of boys discovers a hidden Cold War–era fallout shelter and turns it into their secret refuge. Each of them is dealing with something heavy—family conflict, anxiety, health issues, and pressure to fit in—and the sanctuary becomes a place where they can finally breathe and be honest. As their bond deepens, one friend’s situation at home grows dangerous, forcing them to confront adult problems they can’t handle alone. Together, they learn that real bravery means speaking up, trusting others, and redefining what it means to feel safe.
