BOOK DESCRIPTION
Although he faces his responsibility bravely, thirteen-year-old Matt is more than a little apprehensive when his father leaves him alone to guard their newly built cabin in the wilderness. When a renegade white stranger steals his gun, Matt realizes he has no way to shoot game and no way to protect himself. It is only after meeting the resourceful Indian boy Attean that Matt begins to discover new ways to survive in the forest.
And in getting to know his friend, Matt also comes to learn the heritage and way of life of the beaver clan, and their growing problem in adapting to the white man and the changing frontier.
WHAT I THOUGHT
I really liked this book because I really like survival books but it was also was a little about friendship because two very unlikely friends meet. In the end Matt is stuck with a really tough decision. If you liked this book you would probably like Hatchet by Gary Paulsen. They are very similar books because the main character has to survive alone in the woods.
