Good, but nowhere near as a good as Hatchet or Brian‘s Winter.
This one was super short, so only about ½ of it was in the wilderness. Which for me is the most interesting part. Also, very unrealistic – to think the adults would let him go back on his own (he was supposed to be meeting up with someone, but how come an adult didn‘t accompany him that far?). I did find the author‘s note at the end very interesting, though
