Tato série sleduje odvážnou cestu mladého chlapce, který se rozhodne opustit městský život a vydat se do divoké přírody pohoří Catskill. Najde si domov v obrovském dutém stromě, kde se učí žít z darů země a nachází společníky v podobě dravců. Příběhy zkoumají témata svobody, nezávislosti a dobrodružství, zatímco se hlavní hrdina potýká s výzvami, jako jsou bouře, samota a strach. Je to poutavé vyprávění o dospívání, sebedůvěře a hlubokém spojení s přírodním světem.
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.
