A mesmerizing memoir from three-time Newbery Honor–winning author Gary Paulsen—whose books have sold over 35 million copies worldwide—giving readers a new perspective on the origins of his blockbuster contemporary classic
Hatchet
and other famed survival stories.
“Leaves you gritting your teeth and clutching the pages . . . Haunted
me
as a reader.”

The New York Times Book Review

“This literary treasure is written for book lovers of any age.”
Shelf Awareness
, starred review
His name is synonymous with high-stakes wilderness survival adventures. Now, beloved author Gary Paulsen portrays a series of life-altering moments from his turbulent childhood as his own original survival story. If not for his summer escape from a shockingly neglectful Chicago upbringing to a North Woods homestead at age five, there never would have been a Hatchet. Without the encouragement of the librarian who handed him his first book at age thirteen, he may never have become a reader. And without his desperate teenage enlistment in the Army, he would not have discovered his true calling as a storyteller.
An entrancing and critically lauded account of grit and growing up, perfect for newcomers and lifelong fans alike,
Gone to the Woods: Surviving a Lost Childhood
is literary legend Gary Paulsen at his rawest and realest.
Don’t miss Gary Paulsen’s other acclaimed books from Farrar Straus Giroux Books for Young Readers: the father-son comedy
How to Train Your Dad
and the page-turning survival adventure
