New ed. (1987, Bradbury)
(4) 4-6 Illustrated by Drew Willis. This handsome large-format twentieth-anniversary edition features a new introduction and conversational sidebars written by Paulsen that personalize some of the novel's material. Naturalistic sepia-tone drawings are lovely but would be better suited to illustrate a nature journal than a survival story. Readers may be put off by the book's large size, but teachers will especially appreciate the additional content.
