One storm. One winter. One girl's fight for survival.
A contemporary My Side of the Mountain, Stranded is the story of a wilderness-hungry Black girl from Manhattan whose journey in the Adirondack mountains becomes a nail-biting story of courage, independence, and survival.
"This gripping tale, loaded with suspense and riveting details, is the modern-day answer to Gary Paulsen's Hatchet, a fresh and inclusive take on the classic wilderness survival story." -- Kate Messner, award-winning author of Breakout
Nature-loving Ava yearns to leave the noise of New York City behind for a real adventure in the great outdoors--that's why she's thrilled when her parents allow her to move in with her Auntie Raven in the Adirondack Mountains!
It's a dream come true . . . until Auntie Raven is called away and Ava's stay is cut short. But when wires get crossed, Ava finds herself alone in her aunt's secluded cabin. Winter comes early in the mountains, and one night, a single storm will change everything. With a destroyed cabin, no cell reception, and no neighbors for miles, Ava begins to realize this adventure is more than she ever could have imagined.
Surrounded by mountains blanketed with snow and ice, Ava is completely on her own. It's the ultimate test . . . and her newly-developed survival skills may not be enough for her to last through the winter. Ava might not be able to fight the cold and the storms that come her way, but can she work with nature long enough to survive it?
