From Publishers Weekly

When the pilot of a small, two-person plane has a heart attack and dies, Brian has to crash land in the forest of a Canadian wilderness. He has little time to realize how alone he is, because he is so busy just trying to survive. And learning to survive, to plan on food not just for a day but untiland ifhe is rescued, only begins when he stops pitying himself and understands that no one can help him. He is on his own, without his divorced father, whom he was to visit, or his mother, whom Brian saw kissing another man before the divorce. This is a heart-stopping story: it seems that at every moment Brian is forced to face a life-and-death decision, and every page makes readers wonder at the density of descriptive detail Paulsen has expertly woven together. Poetic texture and realistic events are combined to create something beyond adventure, a book that plunges readers into the cleft of the protagonist's experience. Ages 11-13.

From School Library Journal

Grade 8-12 Brian Robeson, 13, is the only passenger on a small plane flying him to visit his father in the Canadian wilderness when the pilot has a heart attack and dies. The plane drifts off course and finally crashes into a small lake. Miraculously Brian is able to swim free of the plane, arriving on a sandy tree-lined shore with only his clothing, a tattered windbreaker, and the hatchet his mother had given him as a present. The novel chronicles in gritty detail Brian's mistakes, setbacks, and small triumphs as, with the help of the hatchet, he manages to survive the 54 days alone in the wilderness. Paulsen effectively shows readers how Brian learns patienceto watch, listen, and think before he actsas he attempts to build a fire, to fish and hunt, and to make his home under a rock overhang safe and comfortable. An epilogue discussing the lasting effects of Brian's stay in the wilderness and his dim chance of survival had winter come upon him before rescue adds credibility to the story. Paulsen tells a fine adventure story, but the sub-plot concerning Brian's preoccupation with his parents' divorce seems a bit forced and detracts from the book. As he did in Dogsong (Bradbury, 1985), Paulsen emphasizes character growth through a careful balancing of specific details of survival with the protagonist's thoughts and emotions.

5.0étoiles sur 5 An amazing story of survival, Sep 9 2006
Par Brian A. - Voir tous mes commentaires
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: Hatchet (Paperback)
This is easily Gary Paulsen's greatest novel. This is a wonderfully interesting tale of survival and is the best in the series about Brian. This is a wonderful book to read and reread and it never grows dull. Everyone would enjoy reading this book, especially those who enjoy Gary Paulsen or other survival stories.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Must HAVE! (poop), Mai 29 2005
This review is from: Hatchet (Paperback)
"Going to die. Going to die. Going. To. Die. The Secret. Bad. Just as Brian began to see the light, he scratched his left elbow, revealing a large brownish gold scab, turning into a dark red scar/poop. He sees the big animal coming to attack him. It was not a moose, (i am lying.) it was not a gorilla. It was a big horseshoe. Then i fall into a lake, (maybe)"

This is not from the book, but it is still quite amusing. The boob is actually really good, and you should read it. It is a must read for all boys and girls between the ages of seven and 3/4, (and 2 days,) and 29. If you want to know if Brian ACTUALLY fell into a lake, read the book, or research it on the internet. Either one. Or be square, or rather, if you perfer, be circular. Poo All! Read the book, and find out, but maybe Brian might fall into a lake. You never know. Maybe all the time he was stranded, he was really at a pool party in his mind. Or maybe it was all real. Find out by ready the book. You will get a treat, (tofu free.) -Poopy

4.0étoiles sur 5 A Great Survival Story, Juil 19 2004
Par Un client
This review is from: Hatchet (Paperback)
Recommendation
I would recommend this book to anyone 11 years old and up because it presents a picture of how a young man survives the wilderness. Another reason would be that it was a very interesting story about survival. For example, any mistake that Brian makes could cause disaster. "Small mistakes could turn into disasters, funny little mistakes could snowball so that while you were still smiling at the humor you could find yourself looking at death". Another example is when Brian tries to start a fire, but does not know what to use. "Clearly there had to be something for the sparks to ignite, some kind of tinder or kindling-but what?" In conclusion, if you are interested in survival and adventure, then read this book.
