wilderness of the Katahdin Mountains, Lost on a Mountain in Maine is a
gripping survival story for all ages.Twelve-year-old Donn Fendler steps away

Maine, a minute is all it takes. After hours of trying to find his way back, a

forever, Donn’s journey is a physically, mentally, and emotionally charged
story told from the point of view of the boy who lived it.Don’t miss this
thrilling survival story, a proven high-interest winner that pulls in readers
