Left alone to guard the family's wilderness home in eighteenth-century Maine, a boy is hard-pressed to survive until local Indians teach him their skills.
I remember this book from childhood. It was still pretty good to reread it as an adult.
This was a sweet book for teaching empathy, it is about a boy of ten or so in recently settled Maine who is left alone in a desolate cabin for a summer while his dad runs an errand.. he befriends a few Indians and they help him survive, and he learns that his own people are, of course, not so very nice to the natives.
