A Newbery Honor Book. Ben was not an ordinary six-year-old boy. He was much too small for his age, and he seemed to get along better with animals than with people. None of the people in North Corners knew quite what to make of him. Then one June day in 1870, Ben wandered away from his home on Hawk's Hill and disappeared without a trace into the waving prairie grass. How this shy, lonely boy survived mot of a summer in the wilds by forging a bond with a female badger is a poignant story of huuman courage and change. With more than 11 million copies sold worldwide, Incident at Hawks' Hill remains one of the most beloved works of children's literature ever written.
The critically acclaimed, award-winning author of A Sorrow in Our
Heart brings to life an event that marked a major turning point in
the history of the American frontier--the settling of the Ohio
River Valley. "Compelling reading--an epic narrative
history".--Publishers Weekly.
Since Incident at Hawk's Hill was published in 1971, legions of readers have written to the author to find out what happened to young Ben and the Badger after the story ended. This compelling sequel picks up where the first Newbery Honor Book left off, sending Ben on another suspenseful survival adventure in the wild. How Ben is eventually reunited with his family, and in the process helps open the lines of communication and understanding between the whites and the neighboring Metis tribe, makes for a rich, engrossing read.
