Think about hiking with your family on a huge mountain then you get lost, you have no resources and have no idea where you are and somehow have to find a way to stay alive and get home. Lost On A Mountain In Maine By Don Fendler. All this took place on mount Katahdin in 1939 and in the time of 9 days. While Don tries to survive he has to face challenges like his feet getting so swollen he had to get rid of his shoes he also had no luck finding food or water. I personally would recommend this book for 3rd grade and up.

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.
