My Side of the Mountain

Jean Craighead George wrote over eighty popular books for young adults, including the Newbery Medal-winning Julie of the Wolves and the Newbery Honor book My Side of the Mountain. Most of her books deal with topics related to the environment and the natural world. While she mostly wrote children's fiction, she also wrote at least two guides to cooking with wild foods, and an autobiography, Journey Inward.The mother of three children, (Twig C. George, Craig, and T. Luke George) Jean George was a grandmother who joyfully read to her grandchildren since the time they were born. Over the years Jean George kept one hundred and seventy-three pets, not including dogs and cats, in her home in Chappaqua, New York. "Most of these wild animals depart in autumn when the sun changes their behaviour and they feel the urge to migrate or go off alone. While they are with us, however, they become characters in my books, articles, and stories."

Every kid thinks about running away at one point or another; few get farther than the end of the block. Young Sam Gribley gets to the end of the block and keeps going--all the way to the Catskill Mountains of upstate New York. There he sets up house in a huge hollowed-out tree, with a falcon and a weasel for companions and his wits as his tool for survival. In a spellbinding, touching, funny account, Sam learns to live off the land, and grows up a little in the process. Blizzards, hunters, loneliness, and fear all battle to drive Sam back to city life. But his desire for freedom, independence, and adventure is stronger. No reader will be immune to the compulsion to go right out and start whittling fishhooks and befriending raccoons.

Jean Craighead George, author of more than 80 children's books, including the Newbery Medal-winning Julie of the Wolves, created another prizewinner with My Side of the Mountain--a Newbery Honor Book, an ALA Notable Book, and a Hans Christian Andersen Award Honor Book. Astonishingly, she wrote its sequel, On the Far Side of the Mountain, 30 years later, and a decade after that penned the final book in the trilogy, Frightful's Mountain, told from the falcon's point of view. George has no doubt shaped generations of young readers with her outdoor adventures of the mind and spirit. (Ages 9 to 12)

基本没什么人能脱离现代工具而去遵照一种原始的方式生活，我们是那么依赖城市，受不了野外的蚊虫，肮脏的粪便和泥沙，各种不便及想象的危险。我们丧失了与野兽斡旋、与丛林相处、赤手空拳与自然抗衡的能力。然而有的时候，我们却总想逃离所处的城市，仿佛厌烦了马路的噪音，车...  

和风、艳阳、法兰西美食、有趣的邻人，各式各样的聚会。。。优美，风趣的文字，让你充分感受阅读的愉快。愉快的慵懒的普罗旺斯的山居岁月，有我挚爱的气息。那是一种心情，一种生活方式。其实不必普罗旺斯，这样的生活何时何地都有可能，只要你喜欢，你愿意。

一年级的时候老师说我智商不够(TMD哪里看出来了)，要我妈多买点书给我看，弥补智商。于是7岁的时候就有了这本书。 大概能认字的时候开始读的吧，看了一遍就给深深的吸引住了，这本书前后翻了不知道多少遍，被书中美丽的风景，可爱的人深深吸引，满满的童年回忆啊。
