Should you teach Into the Wild?

Your students will love:

• The truth-seeking, journalistic style of Krakauer’s account 
• The youthful ambition and idealistic mind of the protagonist 

But your students may have problems with:

• The tragic ending of the book. It is a sad but awe-inspiring story. 
• Time jumps. Often, the author neglects to follow the chronological order of events in order to share the information at the most effective moments.
