Review: Brian's dad and mom had just divorced. Brian was going to go visit his dad. Brian took a plane to his house. Not long after the plane took off the piolot had a heart attach and the plane crashed.When it crashed he had a little black-out. When he woke up he was in pain, but he went for help, food ,and water. The only thing that he could find was some turtle eggs. Brian picked up one and ate one. They were so good to him that he at some more. Brian was stuck there for a couple of days. But not to long because a helicopter came down and rescued him. The helicopter went and took him to his dad's house. I think that this book was preety good but it was also sad and that's why I gve it three stars.

Summary: The best!
Review: When Brian is stranded in the wilderness after crashing a plane into a lake, he must use the clothes on his back and his hatchet to survive. At first, his life is all mistakes. But soon he grows to be a part of the wilderness, and when the plane comes and rescues him in the end, he feels reluctant to go away. A great book, Hatchet ought to be passed down from generation to generation!

Summary: The Amazing Review of Hatchet
Review: This book was really good. It didn't have pictures, but the words described the setting and characters really well. A boy gets stranded in the woods, and all he has is an hatchet. I think you need to find this book and read it. You could learn a lot of things from this book.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Hatchet (this book bites)
Review: People,readers,hypocrites, let me put it this way. It would take a person with no imagination to read this book. When you read it, it is like Gary Paulson is feeding you the story and you don't even have to think. I found the plot boring and lacking insight. The protagonist could have used some real brains. He managed to get himself pricked by a parcupine, and attacked by a moose. Come on, I know people half his age who have survived in the woods longer than he did. Nothing against Gary Paulson but he could do better.
I have read Gary's books for many years. When I was young I thought he was good but as I got older and re-read his books I discovered that my tastes had changed and that I was very youg and naive.In fact his books disturbed me so much that I had to write this book review.
It makes you think there is no point in life. The book gives off a sense of depression and makes you feel stupid. It makes people look completely stupid. He is stupid because he got scared by an squirrel and cased by a bird. Hatchet is a book that defines all that is not holy. I think I have made my point.
I know many people disagree with my views but I got one thing to tell them "Find a better book"

Summary: Hatchet Review
Review: In "Hatchet", the main character, Brian, is lost in the Canadian wilderness with only a hatchet. He learns many lessons from nature, including how to find food, keep warm, make a fire, and build a shelter. Like many of Paulsen's characters, Brian's life is changed forever by his experience.

Gary Paulsen keeps the story interesting by his descriptions of nature, which makes you feel like you are experiencing Brian's wilderness adventures right along with him. This makes "Hatchet" an exciting book, because the reader is scared right along with Brian, happy with him, and even hungry with him.

Paulsen uses this same theme, of character getting lost in the wilderness and finding himself, in many of his books. In fact, there are three other books about Brian. One is a sequel to "Hatchet", another is based upon a different ending to "Hatchet", and a third is a sequel to that book. This is a theme I enjoy because I am interested in nature.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great Adventure Book
Review: This book was a really great book. It always kept you reading. I am 16 years old and i really hate to read but this book kept my nose in it the whole time. You never get bored or sleepy trying to read this book. This book would be good for everybody who can read. It is real easy to read and you just want to keep on reading. I would deffinetly reccomend this book to anyone who enjoys reading adventure books and wants to be up all night reading because you can't put it down.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: 11, 12, 13.......31 Can I Recommend this book good enough!
Review: The book Hatchet was a reaaly great book. When readding this book I became a book worm. It was really weird because I hate reading books. This book really made me appreciate reading a little bit more. This book also made me read the sequels, Brians Winter and Down River. they were just as good as Hatchet. There is a secrete, read all three books and you will be satisfied.

The author, Gary Paulson, did a great job detailing what Brian (the main character) was thinking and what he did to survive the Canadian wilderness. He did a great job on all three books and having one book really lead to another.

As flying over the canaidian wilderness Brian looks down and all he sees are trees. He begins to think of his father and his mother. His parents were divorced and he was flying to see his father in canada. The pilot of this little bushle plan looked over and he had a heart attack. Brian took control of the plan and flew it into a lake. He survives but the real survival is stearing him right in his face- the canadian wilderness. I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys adventure books and is not affraid of reading this book all night long.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The best book I've ever read.
Review: This is the best book that i have ever read. Hachet has everything from tornados to being chased by a moose and learning how to hunt with homemade bows and arrows and spear fishing. Even though the first two chapters may be boring but then it realy takes off!

Rating: 5 stars
