Great Escapes

by Ann Weil

Published 15 September 2006
Why did Henry Brown spend 27 hours in a box? How did Red the dog escape from his cage? This title uses the "recount" text type to tell the harrowing story of great escapes throughout history, from POWs escaping a World War II prison camp, to Aron Ralston, the hiker who had to cut off his own arm to free himself from underneath a crushing boulder.
