My Side of the Mountain Trilogy -- Jean Craighead George

In 1959, Jean Craighead George published <i>My Side of the Mountain</i>. This coming-of-age story about a boy and his falcon went on to win a Newbery Honor, and for the past forty years has enthralled and entertained generations of would-be Sam Gribleys. The two books that followed--<i>On the Far Side of the Mountain</i> and <i>Frightful's Mountain</i>--were equally extraordinary. Now all three books are available in one deluxe yet affordable volume for veteran devotees and brand-new fans alike.<br><br><b>Author:</b> Jean Craighead George<br><b>Publisher:</b> Dutton Books for Young Readers<br><b>Published:</b> 10/23/2000<br><b>Pages:</b> 640<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Hardcover<br><b>Weight:</b> 1.75lbs<br><b>Size:</b> 8.24h x 5.49w x 2.10d<br><b>ISBN:</b> 9780525462699<br><b>Audience:</b> Ages 9-12<br><br><b>Review Citation(s): </b><br><i>Publishers Weekly</i> 10/23/2000 pg. 78<br><i>Hornbook Guide to Children</i> 01/01/2001 pg. 305 - Recommended, Satisfactory<br><i>Hornbook Guide to Children</i> 07/01/2001 pg. 305 - Recommended, Satisfactory<br><p><b>About the Author</b><br>Jean Craighead George was the preeminent nature writer for children.
