Chapter 1-4 Discussions Chose one of the following chapter questions to discuss then click on "Discussion" tab above to view, respond to, and post discussions:


 * In __I Hole Up in a Snowstorm__ (chapter one), Sam shouts, "I did it!" (Page 3). What did he do and why is this significant? ||
 * In __I Get Started on this Venture__ (chapter two), how did Sam prepare for running away? If you were Sam, is there anything else you would do to prepare (remember it is the 1950's)? ||
 * In __I Find Gribley's Farm__ (chapter three), Sam says his first fire was "magic" (Page 24). What do you think this means? Do you think a fire could be the most important tool for someone living in the wilderness? Why or why not? ||
 * In __I Find Many Useful Plants__ (chapter four), Sam describes the birds as "dripping from the trees... pouring over the limbs" (Page 25). What is Sam likening the birds to? Why doesn't the author just say that the birds were flying? ||
