Fifteen-year-old James has just discovered the magnificence of nature'€”but can he protect it from the phoniness of the material world? When his academic-minded parents decide to forsake civilization for a wilderness summer in the Sierra Nevada mountains, James Fielding figures he'€™ll be counting the minutes until it'€™s over. But in the woods one day, he comes upon a magnificent deer and becomes fascinated by its majesty and beauty. Then he meets two very different girls. Thirteen-year-old Griffin Donahue is '€œpure and free and beautiful.'€ Diane Jarrett is a tanned, '€œhot-pink-bikinied'€ goddess. Griffin is at one with nature. Diane is slumming at the nearby exclusive camp, with its decadent luxury and A-list guests. When these two worlds collide, threatening the existence of the stag, James embarks on a quest to find a friend who'€™s gone missing'€”and to save a life. This ebook features an extended biography of Zilpha Keatley Snyder.
