Summary: DO NOT READ THIS BOOK!
Review: This book was terrible! If there was an option of zero stars that's what I'd give this book. (...) My mom gave this book to me and I was eager to start it, but about three chapters into it I had to put it down. About two months later I picked it up again thinking of giving it another chance. No way am I ever going to finish this book I thought after geting about 3/4 through. And I didn't! Now I refuse to read any other books by Gary Pulsen. EVER!

Review: This book Is by far the greatest out door survival book i have read. Gary paulsen is from Minnesota making him very known to woodland conditions. Gary did a great job, I highly recomend this book for anyone who likes the woods. I think this book is great for kids, and even adults. I hope Brian can go back and live in the woods someday to be happy again. I hope that Gary makes another part to this story becuase i know it would be as good as " HATCHET ".

Summary: Better Than I Thought It Would Be!
Review: Not Bad. Its about Brian who is flying in a plane going to go see his father but the pilot gets a heart attack. Brian was scared and didn't know what to do. The plane ends up falling in an L shaped lake. All Brian has now is his hatchet that his mother has left him. So now he is stuck in an area that he has no idea where he is. He is there for about two months. He learned how to make a fire and hunt for berries. A great story!

Summary: Review of Hatchet
Review: As you open the cover of this book you get enthralled to the point where you cannot stop reading. The story starts out slow. After reading a chapter you may want to stop. It may seem like the story is going nowhere and isn't very interesting. You shouldn't stop reading. By the second or third chapter you will be totally enthralled, and be glad that you didn't stop reading.
This story begins as Brian is flying over the Canadian wilderness on his way to see his father. When the single engine Cessna suddenly crashes, it leaves him stranded in the forest. Brian has to adapt to his new conditions. He is forced to learn how to survive with little supplies and experience. All Brian has are the cloths on his back, a hatchet his mother gave him, and any supplies he could recover from the wrecked plane.
Brian Robeson is the main, and almost only, character in this book. He is thirteen years old. Brian is dealing with his parent's break-up. He is the kind of person who keeps things inside, thinking about their divorce all the time.
The author of Hatchet, Gary Paulsen, uses many descriptive words in his writing. When reading his book you can imagine yourself in the book seeing and talking to the characters. By describing every little intricate detail one feels like they are actually in the story. As you read more of the book the deeper you sink into the heart-stopping suspense. The only criticism I would give to this story would be that there wasn't always action going on. It was a little repetitive at times, when the author was talking about every day life. Overall this book was great and I would recommend it to anyone.

Summary: ...review of Hatchet
Review: I liked the book "Hatchet" because there was a boy who survives in the wild with just a hatchet. In the book, a plane crashes and the boy survives. When help comes, after a long period of time, he leaves. I think it's really neat. Sometimes I feel like that boy because I'm surviving in the world with only what I know.
