survival books Young adult/ teen books on Survival?
I need to read a survival book for english. It would be preferable that it's not adult. Maybe something like Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins
Yeah, fiction please!
Actually I've already read Gone and and waiting for Hunger! Anything else?
I would suggest "World War Z" by Max Brooks. It is a "documentary" style book about how different people from different cultures and backgrounds were able to survive the zombie invasion, and the post-zombie world.
I agree that Hatchet is a good suggestion.
"The Devil's Arithmatic" by Jane Yolen, about a young jewish girl's fight for survival in a concentration camp.
"Island of the Blue Dolphin" by Scott O'dell, about a young woman stranded on an island with no food or weapons. She has to learn to make weapons, fight off wild dogs, and kill food in order to survive.
"The Cay" by Theodore Taylor, about a blinded boy, a man, and a cat are stranded on an island. The book focuses on their survival as well as the relationship between a prejudiced boy and an old black man.
"The Swiss Family Robinson" by Wyss. A family is stranded on a deserted island.

Books In Sync Congratulates J. A. Hunsinger - March 2010 Author Of The Month
Historical Literary Fiction Author Writes Axe of Iron Series by J. A. Hunsinger
Just Released: Confrontation – Second Book In The Axe of Iron Series
In Confrontation, two calamitous events occur that pave the way for the hostile beginnings of an assimilation process between the Greenland Norse settlers and the natives of Vinland. The first mixing of cultures occurs when a woman of the Northmen, Thora, and Deskaheh the Haudenosaunee, marry. This union, accepted enthusiastically by the Northmen, opens a window into the native mind.
For all the people of this land the way is rocky and fraught with danger at every turn, but the acceptance and friendship that develops between the Northmen and the Naskapi, another native tribe, over an affair of honor, the eventual acceptance of a young boy of the Northmen by his Haudenosaunee captors, and a scenario that seems ordained by the will of the gods, makes it all begin to fall into place, as it must for the Northmen to survive.
Will this developing relationship allow the Northmen to remain in the homeland of the Naskapi, or are they doomed to failure?
The settlers must deal with that question on a daily basis. Standing in their way are uncounted numbers of indigenous peoples, the pre-historical ancestors of the contemporary Cree (Naskapi), Ojibwa (Anishinabeg), and Iroquois (Haudenosaunee) Indians. From the outset, the warriors of these various tribes violently resisted the incursion of the tall, pale-skinned invaders. The overwhelming numbers of the native peoples in Vinland hold the fate of the Northmen in their hands. The success or failure of the settlement at Halfdansfjord hangs in the balance.
