Sign of the Beaver

Matt, a young boy from Maine has to take care of his father's cabin, field of crops, gun and property. While his father is gone to get the rest of his family,(wife, daughter and new born baby)Matt has to take care of the cabin. One day while Matt saw a figure coming towards him, at first he thought it was an Indian but as the shadow came closer the figure tuned out to be a white man. This man was named Ben, Matt didn't want to be impolite so he invited him in for supper and let him stay over night. It turns out that Ben left early with his fathers rifle which was meant for hunting and Ben never came back. So Matt just does his daily work but has to eat fish because he had no rifle to hunt animals. By getting to anxious he went to a bee tree and disturbed them and stung him many times.
