Barbara Corcoran & Bradford Angier - A Star to the North. R. 20080201 a YA novel in the vein of Hatchet - sort of, set in the late 1960's as there is mentions of the 'evil' Hippies & LSD, but beyond that bit of anarchonism it's pretty well done. a 6. teen boy and his younger sister visit canada wilderness and take a thrilling canoe ride, also quite a bit about growing up and apart from their parrents, they sort of run away, but more of a taking the summer off, the sister sneaks along. Some good self reliance, and a nice sibling relationship.
