Now, beloved author Gary Paulsen portrays a series of life-altering moments from his turbulent childhood as his own original survival story. If not for his summer escape from a shockingly neglectful Chicago upbringing to a North Woods homestead at age five, there never would have been a Hatchet. Without the encouragement of the librarian who handed him his first book at age thirteen, he may never have become a reader. And without his desperate teenage enlistment in the Army, he would not have discovered his true calling as a storyteller. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAn entrancing and critically lauded account of grit and growing up, perfect for newcomers and lifelong fans alike, \u003ci\u003eGone to the Woods: Surviving a Lost Childhood\u003c\/i\u003e is literary legend Gary Paulsen at his rawest and most real. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eDon't miss Gary Paulsen's other acclaimed books from Farrar Straus Giroux Books for Young Readers: the father-son comedy \u003ci\u003eHow to Train Your Dad\u003c\/i\u003e and the page-turning survival adventure \u003ci\u003eNorthwind\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003c\/b\u003e\n\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Farrar, Straus and Giroux (BYR)","offers":[{"title":"Gone to the Woods: Surviving a Lost Childhood | Gary Paulsen | Hardcover | 9780374314156 | Used: Like New | Children's Books 1639271","offer_id":48164684791960,"sku":"1639271","price":7.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/91Buge1GU-L.jpg?v=1771901995","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/gone-to-the-woods-surviving-a-lost-childhood","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
