The Incredible Journey (1961), by Scottish author Sheila Burnford, is a children's book first published by Hodder & Stoughton, which tells the story of three pets as they travel 300 miles (480 km) through the Canadian wilderness searching for their beloved masters.

The story is set in the northwestern part of Ontario, which has many lakes, rivers, and widely dispersed small farms and towns.
