This Newbery Honor Book by master storyteller Gary Paulsen is now available in this After Words paperback edition!

Following the turn of the seasons, eleven year old Eldon traces the daily routines of his life on a farm and his relationship with his older brother Wayne. During the winter, with little work to be done on the farm, Eldon and Wayne spend the quiet hours with their family, listening to their Uncle David's stories. But Eldon soon learns that, although he has lived on the same farm, in the same house with his uncle for eleven springs, summers, and winters, he hardly knows him.

From the Inside Flap

The winter room is where Eldon, his brother Wayne, old Uncle David, and the rest of the family gather on icy cold nights, sitting in front of the stove. There the boys listen eagerly to all of Uncle David's tales of superheroes.

Then one night Uncle David tells the story, "The Woodcutter," and what happens next is terrible--then wonderful. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

I read Gary's first book and like everyone else

I read Gary's first book and like everyone else, Cookie was my favourite character in a book. I have been dog sledding in Whitehorse, at Muktuk and know what they are talking about. In Winter Room he tells more his love of the white wilderness and his life with Cookie. Lovely gentle read.

Not much Action

Reviewed in the United States on 10 June 2018

My grandsons and I love reading Gary Paulsen, but this book didn't quite work for us. Most of it was taken up with nostalgic descriptions of the old farm, farming procedures and house, with very little actual story.

To be read once, and then again, alone or aloud, with your children or with your partner. See through the eyes of 11-year-old Eldon, as he describes with poetry his life on a Minnesota farm and discovers his Uncle David through magical tales on winter nights.

Good book

Purchased as a gift for a 10 years old boy in advanced classes and he like Paulsen books. Found it is also good for older readers who have difficulty w/Jack London.

Too slow for a 9-year-old

Reviewed in the United States on 14 June 2011

Verified Purchase

My wife and have been delighted reading other Gary Paulsen books to our 9-year-old. While "The Winter Room" was satisfied for us adults, our son was quickly bored. Paulsen does a wonderful job activating all five senses as he creates his scenes, and his parents were being drawn into the story and historical setting. But our boy needs a good deal more action. My guess is that a girl may find it more interesting.
