Twelve-year-old Sam Gribley runs away from his cramped New York City apartment to live alone in the Catskill Mountains on his great-grandfather’s abandoned land. He hollows out a tree for shelter, trains a peregrine falcon, befriends a weasel, and learns to live entirely off nature — until he ultimately realizes that human connection matters too. A Newbery Honor Book.
