Description:

Every kid thinks about running away at one point or another; В few get В farther than the end of the block. Young Sam Gribley gets to В the end of В the block and keeps going--all the way to the Catskill В Mountains of В upstate New York. There he sets up house in a huge В hollowed-out tree, В with a falcon and a weasel for companions and his В wits as his tool for В survival. In a spellbinding, touching, funny В account, Sam learns to В live off the land, and grows up a little in the В process. Blizzards, В hunters, loneliness, and fear all battle to drive В Sam back to city В life. But his desire for freedom, independence, and В adventure is В stronger. No reader will be immune to the compulsion to В go right out В and start whittling fishhooks and befriending В raccoons.

Jean Craighead George, author of more than 80 children's books, В including the Newbery Medal-winning Julie of the Wolves, В created another prizewinner with My Side of the Mountain--a В  Newbery Honor Book, an ALA Notable Book, and a Hans Christian Andersen В  Award Honor Book. Astonishingly, she wrote its sequel, On the Far Side of the В Mountain, 30 years later, and a decade after that penned the В final book in the trilogy, Frightful's Mountain, В  told from the falcon's point of view. George has no doubt shaped В  generations of young readers with her outdoor adventures of the mind В  and spirit. (Ages 9 to 12) --Emilie Coulter --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
