- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Carl is sent to live with his uncle's family in Minnesota by social services. He soon learns the ways of the rural life, the woods, and the harsh winter.One day when he and his cousin are caught in the woods far from home when a blizzard strikes, they take shelter in the shack of an old man with a severely damaged face, who lives in the deep woods alone. The man takes them in, cares for them through the night, and sends them on their way. But soon, Carl starts returning on weekends to visit the old man, whose name is never mentioned. Carl calls him the Foxman, because he traps foxes.The Foxman's face was hurt in World War I, although we are never told how. And when Carl is home with his uncle's family, old men who were veterans of World Was I and II, sit around telling and laughing at war stories that Carl doesn't find funny at all.This short book is a war novel. Even though no war is happening, there are no battles or soldiers, apart from elderly veterans, it is a war novel, and one of philosophy. A short, easy reading book, for a deep thinking reader.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5A young teen, transplanted from the city to the northern woods of Minnesota, discovers an old man living by himself, and a friendship between the two develops. This one is special, recommended.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5This book is interesting. It talks about the narrator's llife in Harold's farm and the difficulties the narrator faced. Gary Paulsen, you're a good writer but I think you can improve on this book a little more.
