Trying to identify a novel or novella!
This is probably a very long shot.
I remember reading a book (I think it was in English class) when I was about 12 years old (which would be 1979-ish so it's older than that).
Setting was far northern #Australia, main characters were children. I think they were stranded, and I think the book ended with scenes of all of them walking along the beach, then later walking on the beach but there was one less, and so on, with the implication being that they gradually died.
I've heard of the #ArnhemLand novels by Ann E Wells and I wonder if it's one of those, but can't find any copies or even synopses to test my theory.
All ideas welcome!

@bookstodon I'm trying to remember a book I read once. I'm pretty sure it was published by Baen. The premise was that humans from Earth are stranded on a planet where all life is mutually toxic with terrestrial life and there are two species of intelligent aliens which both resemble giant land squid one of which has roughly iron age/medieval technology and the other has little material technology, but can make food safe for the humans.
