Summary: Can you survive in the wilderness for a whole year?
Comment: My Side of the Mountain by Jean George follows the story of young Sam. Sam, an unhappy pre-teen is tired of his busy city life. He has no privacy and can't seem to get away from the yelling and crying of his brothers and sisters! Later he tells his family he is going to run away to their grandfather's old piece of land in the forest. There he learns survival techniques and how to cope with the strange seasons. Sam also meets people and animals that seem like family. The winter will be coming soon! Will Sam be ready or will he freeze in the snow?
The pros of this story are that you could picture every word and you could understand it, too! It had amazing characters and an interesting plot. The cons of this story are that at some parts it can get slow and boring. The ending also could have been changed so when you finished the book you wouldn't be so discouraged. Overall this book was fantastic!
