My Review,
By Lydia (Wisconsin) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Hatchet (Paperback)
If you like books about adventures and fights to stay alive Hatchet is a good book for you. Brian Rodeson is a Thirteen-year-old kid whose parents were divorced. He was going to the Canadian oil fields to see his father. His father was a mechanical engineer and invented a new oil-drilling bit. Brian was over the Canadian wildness and the pilot is having a heart attack and Brian started to panic because he was the only other person in the plane, he called for help many times. After awhile the plane ran out of gas and he had to crash land in a lake. After the crash he was left with the clothes on he had on and a hatchet on his belt. He thought he was going to die but he started to eat some berries he found. He built a shelter under a rock cliff. He made a wall out of wood and put it up against the rocks. Then he tried making a spear and a bow to catch fish. He finally started to hunt birds and rabbits.I think people that would like this book are people that like adventure and action. I like how Gary Paulsen writes because makes you feel like your actually there.

Hatchet,
By Drew (Tulsa, OK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Hatchet (Paperback)
The book Hatchet is about a thirteen year old boy named Brian Robeson. Brian is on his way to Canada to visit his father. During the flight up to Canada Brian's pilot has a heart attack. Brian is the only other person on the plane and has to figure out a way to land the plane. Brian crashes the plane in the Canadian woods and learnes how to survive in the wilderness by himself.I think that this was a good book. I liked that he was all alone and figured out everything by himself and was able to stay alive. I don't think that the author did anything wrong with this book.

The Hatchet,
This review is from: Hatchet (Paperback)
The book called Hatchet is about a boy named Brian who is going on a single engine plane when suddenly the plane crashes because the pilot died of a heart attack. Now Brian has to survive in the wilderness until someone finds him. What made me read this book was a recommendation by a friend...I liked this story because it was about a boy who was trying to survive out in the wilderness and was learning really good things. When he first stayed out in the wilderness, it was hard for Brian to survive, but after a few weeks and months, he started to understand things out there. Like how to survive, how to get food, shelter, and understand animals.My favorite part of the story was that when Brian was going to get some berries he found near by a tree, a wolf saw him and attacked. The next day Brian was all wounded. But when he saw the wolf again, the wolf and Brian understood each other by looking staight in the eye of the both of them, and the wolf didn't do anything to Brian this time. That is how Brian understood animals.
