Bookroo's summary
Twelve-year-old Donn Fendler faces a harrowing ordeal when he becomes lost in the foggy wilderness of Mount Katahdin. Separated from his Boy Scout troop, Donn must endure rainstorms, evade black bears, and battle starvation as he struggles to find his way back. With each passing day, his hope dwindles, and the wilderness becomes more menacing. Can Donn's resilience and resourcefulness guide him home, or will the mountain claim him forever? This gripping survival tale will keep you on the edge of your seat, wondering if Donn can conquer the elements and his own fears.
From the publisher
When twelve-year-old Donn Fendler gets tired of waiting for his father and brothers to join him on the summit of Maine’s highest peak, he decides to find his own way back to camp. But Donn doesn’t count on a fast-moving fog that obscures the path. He doesn’t count on falling down an embankment the hides him from sight. And he doesn’t count on taking a turn that leaves him along to wander aimlessly for nearly two weeks in the empty mountain wilderness.
