Out of the Wilderness

(4) 4-6 As his half-brother's fanatical devotion to nature increases, high schooler Josh begins to chafe against life in the Alaskan wilderness. While Josh plots a return to city living, his unbalanced brother riskily chooses to hole up with a hibernating bear. The rural Alaska setting is compelling, but the most interesting aspects of the plot took place some time before the novel began and remain unexplored, making this book read like a sequel.
