About the Book: <em>Woods Runner<\/em><\/h2><p><em>Woods Runner<\/em> by Gary Paulsen is a gripping survival story set during the American Revolution. Thirteen\u2011year\u2011old Samuel lives deep in the Pennsylvania frontier, where he spends his days hunting and navigating the wilderness. His quiet life is shattered when he returns from a hunting trip to find his settlement burned, neighbors killed, and his parents taken captive.<\/p><p>Using his skills as a woodsman, Samuel begins a dangerous journey across forests, battle zones, and enemy\u2011controlled territory to rescue his family. Along the way, he encounters both the brutality of war and the kindness of strangers who help him survive. Paulsen weaves short historical notes between chapters, giving readers a deeper understanding of the Revolutionary War and the realities faced by civilians.<\/p><p>This novel is an excellent choice for teaching historical context, survival elements, character development, and the impact of war on families. Students are drawn to Samuel\u2019s determination and the suspense that builds with every chapter.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section
