Hatchet

Summary: Loved this book!
Review: I was introduced to this book by a special needs child I was tutoring. He was an extremely reluctant reader and he struggled with this book, but he was so engrossed with it that he kept trying. I became so caught up in the story that I went out and bought my own copy. I was soon back at the book shop buying a copy for my son and one for each of my nephews. We also have the audio version so that my son can listen to it at night. I would recommend this book to anyone from 9 up.

Summary: Hatchet
Review: The book was good. I think I could read this book over over. The book is about a boy who was lost in the woods because of a plane wrack. His father and mother had to split up because she was cheating. The kid learned a lot of new things. His pocketknife was the thing that saved him.

Brian mom gave him a hatchet before he left to go see his dad in Northern Canada. The pilot had a heart attack and died. Brian tried to fly the plane and crashed. He landed in the wildernness by a lake and his life was hard. ONe way it was hard was that he could not make a fire so he ripped up a $20 bill to try to make a fire and i did eventually. There were other problems too, like to find food and to protect himself. Do you think he well make it to go see his dad?

I thought the book was ok but I didn't like it when the pilot had a heart attack. IT was exciting to read.

Summary: The review of Hatchet
Review: The book Hatchet is about a 13 year old boy named Brian who went on a plane to see his dad and the plane crashed in Northern Canada. After the plane crashed in the water Brian got on land, he had a lot of bumps and bruises and he keeped passing out. One day after he woke up he remembered that he had his hatchet with him, he used his hatchet to hunt and cut his wood for the fire. A few days later Brian found some berries, and water. He thought someone would find him. He met some animals like a bear, porcupine, and a turtle. Did Brian get saved? Did he survive?

I thought the book was ok, but i really dont like the type of story that Hatchet is. I liked how the author had a lot of interesting information. I didnt like how there were to many details. The people that i think would like this book is boys that are 11 or 12 years old.

This book is about a boy who went on a trip in a pilot plane and crash landed into a lake. Brian is in the wild for almost a year. I thought that the ending was good. The book was very good and I think you could not put the book down.

Review: By Gaury Paulson, Jan/28/03

Reviewed by: James Brady

I think Hatchet was a wonderful book. It is full of adventurous quests. But I do have some comments about it, one of which is, "Why couldn't Brian go for the black box in the beginning?" I mean it was a great story and all. Everything that he described I could so picture with perfect detail. But, I seriously doubt that he taught himself how to make his own bow and arrows. I recommend this book to anyone who loves reading about adventures in the wildlife.
