Product Description

 
Gary Paulsen, the author of such books as HATCHET and BRIAN'S WINTER, shares the story of his own adventurous life. The only child of alcoholic parents, Paulsen was left on his own for much of his childhood--a fact that forced him to develop such survival skills as hunting and living in the woods. At age 14 he ran away from home and took up with a traveling circus. Years later, Paulsen competed in Iditarod races and other endurance events. Readers will discover that many events from Paulsen's own life are reflected in his fictional works.

  Washington Post Book World: "GUTS isn't recommended reading for anyone who might be bothered by Paulsen's detailed accounts of being attacked by a moose, or eating squirrel intestines, fish eyeballs and seal blood.
