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.

      Newbery Honor winner Steele tells the story of young Micajah Amis, who lives with his widowed father, Jared, in the wilderness of Tennessee. With a severe winter bearing down on them, Jared leaves the young man with his late mother's kin. Micajah uses his survival skills to help them and learns how to live in a family. Richard Brewer does a fine job performing this well-researched and detailed work. He reads with a slight accent that is clear and easy flowing. Dialogue is performed with credible and distinct voices, and narrative is done with the same skill. M.T.F. (c) AudioFile 2005, Portland, Maine
