My Side of the Mountain (ISBN 0140348107) is a 1959 book by Jean Craighead George about wilderness survival. It is also a story about a boy who learns about nature and himself. The book won the Newbery Honor Award and was adapted into a 1969 movie.
Set in the Catskill Mountains near Delhi, New York, My Side of the Mountain tells the fictional account of how Sam Gribley survives in the wilderness of upstate New York with only a penknife, an axe, a ball of cord, forty dollars, and flint and steel.
