    About this audiobook

    It is going to be the coldest winter ever, and Caje’s dad can see the signs. Squirrels flood the trees, heading south. Deer have their winter pelts months early. And game in the woods is so scarce that Caje and his dad go hungry as often as not. Caje’s dad only knows nature. He’s a “woodsy” – a hunter, a scavenger, a wild man who lseeps in caves and hollow trees and doesn’t like other people. He’s raised Caje to be like him. Which is why Caje is so confused when his dad abandons him at his uncle’s just as the cruel winter closes in. As the food supplies grow meager, Caje has to learn to think of other people, and become part of something he’s never known before: a family.

      It is dark in the whale and hot. The air is difficult to breathe. Ira is coated in gunk, sweating in his black Speedo. The whale’s heartbeat booms and echoes like a giant drum. It’s intimidating. It sounds tribal, ritualistic, as Ira wades through th

      My brothers love survival stories, so when I picked this book up off the shelf recently, I guessed they’d probably love it. Sure enough—they did! I can’t say as it was my favorite read ever—I found the adventure and danger a little much at times—but overall, it was an interesting read. And it made for a good read-aloud! The part I found most interesting was the description of the hard winter. I don’t know that I’ve ever read about a winter this difficult—I had to wonder if it was based on fact, or was just the author’s vivid imagination. If you have children who enjoy adventure stories, and like danger, this could be a good choice.CW: A description of a man who was brutally killed at the beginning of ch. 3. I skipped a paragraph or two here when reading aloud.
