I read this book in English class when I was in 6th grade many years ago. I remember actually looking forward to the class every day so we could read more of the story. Back then I was not a big reader but really enjoyed the story, it is written in a way that keeps your attention and is very descriptive. After all these years I had never forgotten this book. My son is 7 and I have been reading to him every night before bed for years. I wanted to try reading a bigger book with chapters to him, that I could read to him in the course of a few days to a week. He was captivated by the boy in the story and all that he had to endure. I had to skip over some of the beginning parts that discuss the main character going through his parents divorce, being my son is only 7 and wouldn't understand the content. Reading this book to him sparked up many fun ad interesting conversations of what we would do if put in the same situations. This is not a book my 7 yr old could have read to himself, it's too long for a younger child and he would have had trouble comprehending certain parts. It is a perfect read for middle school age boy or girl.Read full review
My son and I both found the book to be very informative on what all needs to be considered when camping or living out in the woods. The author does well in keeping your interest throughout the story as well. We both enjoyed the book.

My kids read this in school. I am now reading it to the Grandkids (3 Seven yr olds). The kids LOVE it and we are discussing what they would do in the same situations. LOVE that it is holding their interest and making them think, reason and interact so much!!!!!
