Description
A young adult edition of Turia Pitt's bestselling book Unmasked that is unflinchingly honest and completely inspirational.
Telling the story of Turia's life before and after the fire, this young readers' book unmasks the real Turia—funny, fierce, intelligent, flawed. With a new foreword from Turia, additional content, and a new Q&A section, this edition covers topics such as confidence, goal-setting, family and friends, and happiness that will resonate strongly with tweens and teens.
Unmasked reveals the woman behind the headlines, and in so doing, uncovers the grace, humour, and inner-steel that gets Turia Pitt through every day—and which leaves the rest of us watching on in amazement.

About the Author
Turia Pitt is living proof that, with the right mindset, anything is possible. Caught in a grassfire while competing in a 100 km ultramarathon in 2011, Turia suffered full thickness burns to 65 per cent of her body. But surviving is the least of her achievements. One of Australia's most admired and widely recognised people, Turia has gone on to become a bestselling author, a two-time Ironman and a humanitarian - raising well over a million dollars for not-for-profit Interplast. Through her online presence, books and online programs, Turia has inspired millions to live with more confidence, conquer their fears and chase down their wildest dreams.
