The River

A realistic fiction author that is great for upper elementary through high school is Gary Paulsen. Paulsen creates a survival story in The River (AR level 5.5) with a character from a previous book called The Hatchet (AR level 5.7). When I read Paulsen I am taken to a real place and learn essential survival skills. This is a story about solving problems and asking yourself, what would I do in this situation?
