KathyBC Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 Anything by Jim Kjelgaard - Wild Trek is specifically a wilderness adventure. Lost in the Barrens by Farley Mowat, and its sequel Curse of the Viking Grave are classics. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLisa Posted November 29, 2008 Share Posted November 29, 2008 Moccasin Trail, forgot the author Heart of the Rockies by G. Henty (higher reading level) I thought my wilderness-loving ds would also enjoy books by Louis L'Amour, but at 12 he wasn't interested. I plan to introduce them again.
