Táto séria sleduje odvážnu cestu mladého chlapca, ktorý sa rozhodne opustiť mestský život a vydať sa do divokej prírody pohoria Catskill. Nájde si domov v obrovskom dutom strome, kde sa učí žiť z darov zeme a nachádza spoločníkov v podobe dravcov. Príbehy skúmajú témy slobody, nezávislosti a dobrodružstva, zatiaľ čo sa hlavný hrdina potýka s výzvami, ako sú búrky, samota a strach. Je to pútavé rozprávanie o dospievaní, sebavedomí a hlbokom spojení s prírodným svetom.
A young boy relates his adventures during the year he spends living alone in the Catskill Mountains including his struggle for survival, his dependence on nature, his animal friends, and his ultimate realization that he needs human companionship.

In 1959, Jean Craighead George's My Side of the Mountain, a coming-of-age tale about a boy and his falcon, won a Newbery Honor and has captivated readers for decades. The subsequent books, On the Far Side of the Mountain and Frightful's Mountain, are now collected in a deluxe volume for both longtime fans and newcomers.
