"Aren't you scared to stay here by yourself?" asks the driver.

"Heck no!" Sam shouts, swinging down from the truck. He's come from the city to live in the forest for a whole year. All he has with him are a knife, an axe, and flint and steel for making a fire--no matches, no food, no tent.

But this first night he can't get a fire going. Hungry and cold, he sits shivering, listening to the wild cries of night creatures...

Now he is scared!!!

Would make a wonderful book for any Middle school child!
