On the Far Side of the Mountain

Sam Gribley, the nature-loving boy who ran away to live off the land in My Side of the Mountain, is still on his own in the wild. With him now are his falcon, Frightful, and also his peppery younger sister Alice.

Suddenly Sam's peaceful life in destroyed when Frightful is taken away and Alice disappears. To find them, he must leave his mountain home and track his sister across the rocky mountain terrrain as only he can do. The trail to the far side of the mountain and beyond leads Sam to danger, discovery, and finally, the hardest decision of his life.

With shimmering clarity and fascinating detail, Jean Craighhead George continues Sam's story of the challenges, trails, and satisfactions of life in the wilderness. A worthy successor to one of the classics of our time.
