Fulfilled my childhood run-away-and-live-in-tree fantasy. (

Puts you right into the heart of nature. It really made me appreciate the comforts of the city but at the same time, made me value nature more. (

Amazon.com Book Description (ISBN 0525462694, Hardcover)

In 1959, Jean Craighead George published My Side of the Mountain. This coming-of-age story about a boy and his falcon went on to win a Newbery Honor, and for the past forty years has enthralled and entertained generations of would-be Sam Gribleys. The two books that followed--On the Far Side of the Mountain and Frightful's Mountain--were equally extraordinary. Now all three books are available in one deluxe yet affordable volume for veteran devotees and brand-new fans alike.
