Short Answer
1. What might you need if you were going to live alone in the wilderness? What kind of physical items and skills are required to be self-sufficient?
Teaching Suggestion: Sam, the protagonist of the novel, chooses to live on his own in the wilderness after living in a crowded New York apartment. Consider asking students to discuss the fundamental needs of all living things before discussing items and skills that might be required to make an individual self-sufficient. Consider using the resources to further explore these topics.
Short Activity
