To Stay Alive by Skila Brown

This is a verse novel about the infamous Donner party. I do not think younger readers will stay engaged in this book to get to the cannibalism part (over 220 pages into the book). This book details that hardship of their travels, both physically and mentally. It was an ok read which I borrowed from the school library.
