The Sledding Hill is a 2005 post-modern metafictional novel by young adult writer Chris Crutcher.

By having the novel narrated by a super-omniscient dead boy and placing himself into the novel, Crutcher has written a work that encompasses two literary fads.

The novel is narrated by the late Billy Bartholomew, the best friend of the protagonist, Eddie Proffit.

After the death of two important figures of his life in quick succession, his father and his best friend, Eddie refuses to speak.

Crutcher places himself in the novel's climax as a speaker at the board meeting on the removal of the book.
