Resumen del Editor

Jake and Taylor Wilder have been taking care of themselves for a long time. Their father abandoned the family years ago, and their mother is too busy working and running interference between the boys and her boyfriend, Bull, to spend a lot of time with them. Thirteen-year-old Jake spends most of his time reading. He pores over his father's journal, which is full of wilderness facts and survival tips. Eleven-year-old Taylor likes to be outside playing with their dog, Cody, or joking around with the other kids in the neighborhood.

But one night everything changes. The boys discover a dangerous secret that Bull is hiding.

And the next day, they come home from school to find their mother unconscious in an ambulance. Afraid that their mom is dead and fearing for their own safety, the Wilder Boys head off in search of their father. They only have his old letters and journal to help them, but they bravely venture onward.

It's a long journey from the suburbs of Pittsburgh to the wilderness of Wyoming; can the Wilder Boys find their father before Bull catches up with them?

Very good

It was so so sooooo good, I listened to this story every night for months.

great car listen

this summer decided to listen to this with the kids on the way to camp. soon as the kids got in the car they would beg to put on the book. every chapter ended with a great cliffhanger. and the story wasn't boring at all. I'm single mother. so it got to me emotionally while listening. and it opened up a lot of questions from the kids. it also was a great display of the upstairs and downs of a sibling relationship. and helping my kids realize that even if they annoy each other.when in tough times. they would always be there for one another.

Great road trip book for the whole family

Our family loved listening to this book on our road trip! Our 16 year old loved it too!
The narrator is very good and changes his voice for each character. We will definitely be downloading the second book!

The way the boy's made a shelter and was surviving in the wilderness.

I loved how the dog cody saved them every time they needed help, there first was the guard dogs that cody chased away then the bear wich was amazing.

AMAZING

This audio book is an awesome book but they do say the A word a couple of times except that its perfect

Fantastic

My 8 year old loved all of these books. We are reading them for the 3rd time now. Keeps the reader wanting to hear more.

Bond of siblings…

This is an excellent story about life’s obstacles and challenges and the spirit to overcome them through the bonds of love, nature and tenacity

Very entertaining for the whole family.

Our 7 and 10 year old boys loved this story and they're hoping for a second book.

Hatchet Ripoff

literally all the high points of the survival aspect of the story were direct excerpts from the book Hatchet by Gary Paulson, which is actually mentioned by name in the book. The entire plot and premise is flimsy and far-fetched enough that even my 8 year old often commented "that doesn't make sense" and "it wouldn't happen that way". Made our car trip pass faster but it was a bit painful to sit through .

NOT family friendly

Didn’t get past the first 5 minutes with my 12 year old as it talks about sex, drugs, mental health, crime, and domestic violence. Might be a great book but NOT appropriate for kids.
