This book is great for kids; short (and exciting) enough to keep their interest, and packed with lessons for everyday life. Main character Daniel Martin isn't the brightest kid in school--he gets made fun of a lot. But when he and his classmates get stranded in the wilderness, he saves the day.

Will help to teach children not to necessarily judge others by their appearance. Not as charming as Hatchet, but still a great read. Paulsen is definitely a master of tales of the wild.

By A Customer

This review is from: Danger on Midnight River: World of Adventure Series, Book 6 (Paperback)

Loved the book! Can't believe how great it was. It teaches life lessons. It also shows a lot of bravery, and it's action packed and also adventurous. Teaches the safety with guns. It also shows survival tips! I rate this book a 5 star. And Gary Paulsen, in my opinion is the best author in history! Well got to go.
