A NEWBERY HONOR BOOK • OVER 4 MILLION COPIES SOLD • The defining childhood classic about a boy finding his own way in the wilderness—a nostalgic book for readers young and old who have ever wanted to run away from home.

“Should appeal to all rugged individualists who dream of escape to the forest.”—The New York Times Book Review

“An extraordinary book… It will be read year after year.”—The Horn Book

Twelve-year-old Sam Gribley is terribly unhappy living in his family’s crowded New York City apartment. One day—armed with just a penknife, a ball of red cord, forty dollars, some flint and steel, and the clothes on his back—he decides to run away to his grandfather’s abandoned farm in the Catskill Mountains, to live in the woods all by himself. There, Sam must rely on his own ingenuity and the resources of the great outdoors to survive, as he discovers a side of himself he never knew existed.

Teeming with hope, adventure, and a deep search for identity, My Side of the Mountain is a timeless classic for readers of all ages who have ever wondered what it would be like to live off the land.

Great quick story for kids and adults alike.

In depth detailed story. Read it in school and had to get it and read it again.

Amazing

Epically awesome!!! Yes. No other way to describe the adventure of Sam and Frightful. From the description of the mountain, weather, feelings, ect you cannot stop listening. An absolute must read for anyone.

Interesting book to read :)

I think it was a really good book. I really liked the falcon and i think it was a really interesting book to read. It made reading for school a lot more fun! I am 11.

Amazing family book!

I read this book as a young child and loved it, so on a road trip with 5 kids, aging from 5 to 15 we listened to it. The kids were all hooked and loved it, they didn't want to get out at stops even they enjoyed it so much!
