{"product_id":"guts-9780440407126","title":"Guts","description":"Guess what -- Gary Paulsen was being kind to Brian. In \u003ci\u003eGuts\u003c\/i\u003e, Gary tells the real stories behind the Brian books, the stories of the adventures that inspired him to write Brian Robeson's story: working as an emergency volunteer; the death that inspired the pilot's death in \u003ci\u003eHatchet\u003c\/i\u003e; plane crashes he has seen and near-misses of his own. He describes how he made his own bows and arrows, and takes readers on his first hunting trips, showing the wonder and solace of nature along with his hilarious mishaps and mistakes. He shares special memories, such as the night he attracted every mosquito in the county, or how he met the moose with a sense of humor, and the moose who made it personal. There's a handy chapter on \"Eating Eyeballs and Guts or Starving: The Fine Art of Wilderness Nutrition.\" Recipes included. Readers may wonder how Gary Paulsen survived to write all of his books -- well, it took guts. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eFrom the Hardcover edition.\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Laurel Leaf Library\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/12\/2002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780440407126\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.18lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 6.90h x 4.18w x 0.45d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003ePW Notes and Reprints\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/18\/2002 pg. 63\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKliatt\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/01\/2003 pg. 44\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/18\/2002\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader Quiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e46280 \/ Guts: The True Stories Behind Hatchet and the Brian Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 6.5 \/ \u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Middle Grade \/ \u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 4\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Gary Paulsen","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36637232267420,"sku":"9780440407126","price":6.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_92ddd061-4284-4975-98d5-8aafb51feaf7.jpg?v=1603844271","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/guts-9780440407126","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
