@Novels56 I was six when I saw the movie version of "My Side Of The Mountain", where a 12 year old goes off to live in the woods alone (with his dad's permission?!). It became my favorite book, I started learning about backyard foraging, and to this day I have a wilderness survival manual as bathroom reading for funsies. I'm shocked I don't know more, probably because I've always also thought air conditioning is nice, but please ase don't tempt me.
@tippitiwichet one of my favorite books. My fifth grade teacher read it to us back in the dark ages. 😂
@tippitiwichet @Novels56 There's a book called Hatchet that is similar that you might like then.
@danielbsmith @Novels56 I will keep an eye out for it, thanks.
