Description:The sole survivor when his village was massacred, the boy spends his days alone in the woods, feeling more kinship with the animals than with the people who took him in but never really accepted him. THE BOY WHO RAN is a middle grade novel about a Native American orphan trying to find a place in the world. It's written like a parable, following the boy's struggle to be seen and treated like one of The People. Until now, he's been satisfied to live in his own world, not really paying attention to what the others did. He's had one overwhelming obsession: to run faster than anyone else and to do so in absolute silence as he moves through the forest, like a ghost.It's been seven years since he was found hungry and bleeding by a hunting party after escaping the massacre. The villagers think his mind is broken and as half animal—they don't know exactly what to do with him but are kind hearted and make sure he's fed and sheltered.The story is set six thousand years ago in the mid-archaic period in North American.One editor called it's feel and tone a cross between The Giver and Hatchet.Winner Gold Medal 2014 Independent Publisher's Book Awards in Juvenile Fiction CategoryBronze Medal, 2014 Moonbeam Children's Book Awards, Pre-Teen Cultural / Historical FictionWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
