Relation During Books Cold River
Learning to Share her FatherJudson's 1974 story deals with survival on two levels: a brutal winter in the frozen woods and the hot battle between step-siblings. Of course two kids have a better chance of making it on their own during the winter than just one, but not all the predators have four legs. This readable book rivals Paulsen's man-about-the-woods with its forest lore. It is supposed to be impossible to starve in Nature's bounty--even in winter.
In 1921 fourteen-year-old Lizzie and her step-brother, Tim, anticipate a two-week camp out with their father--a capable woodsman and professional guide in the Adirondack mountains. In fact this book is a treasury of survival information. One of Lizzy's talents is the ability to remember (if not actually understand) everything that she hears. But when their father dies after a whitewater disaster, the two youngsters must pool their knowledge and skills (plus come to terms with their conflicting emotions about the blended family) in order to make it through the long months of challenge and outright danger. Most of the tale is a flashback, from adult Lizzy's viewpoint. The pace picks up dramatically near the end, when the kids face adult violence. This changes the genre of the book from mere survival to thriller--with a touch of mystery. Enjoyable reading for all teens or to keep as a guide in a cabin in the woods.

An odd little nugget of a book but I was pleasantly surprised. The story is somewhat slow moving but the ending was an interesting surprise.Sixty-plus Lizzie Allison tells the story of the harrowing wilderness adventure she, at age 14, and her younger stepbrother Tim survived through three months of deadly winter.
I liked this book, I got it when I attempted to check out Cold Rock River at the library. I was intrigued so I brought it home to read. It's a quick read and I read that it has been made into a movie too. I would probably give it 3 1/2 stars.

This was a book on a great Adirondack adventure. The main character Lizzy was a 14 old girl stranded with her brother in the worst winter ever recorded. Lizzy and her brother endured the blunt of the winter it stick forts and ate grouse and fish. Find out how she barely gets through the biggest blizzard and almost getting murdered in her sleep.
