Summary: Survival Against the Odds
Review: Hatchet was a great book about survival in the wilderness with almost no hope. I enjoyed reading this book and I am currently reading Hatchet:Winter, which is also quite good. I found Hatchet compelling and I would read it again.

Summary: Couldn't put it down!!
Review: I really liked this book, it was really exciting and taught me a lot about the environment and how I might be able to survive if something like that happened to me. My favorite part was where he learned how to kill the wild chickens, or "fool-birds" as he called them. It was scary when the pilot had a heart attack, and Brian smelled the smell, but I thought this was a great book. I kept worrying about Brian, so I had to finish the book quickly! Everyone should read this book!

Hatchet

The novel Hatchet is a very good book. Sometimes it makes you cry. It shows that every person can do stuff that is hard to imagine. It is a life story that could happen to any one. Main character Brian Robson is going to visit his father who lives in Canada. During the flight pilot has a heart attack and died. Brian landed the plane in the Canadian wilderness. He has nothing with him; nobody to talk to or to share feelings with. The worst part of it is that he has nothing to eat. He is so hungry that he would pay any price to get food. After few days of starving he eats some raspberries but they weren't the good ones so he throws up. He made his own tools and he starts to a new life there. He even made a fire, which helps him a lot. He is getting some new ideas how to get food but he has no idea how is going to get back home. He is there for 54 days and then something happens.
When I was reading this book I felt sorry for Brian but I also was proud of him. When he was doing all those things it was hard to believe that he was only 13 years old. Especially when he made a fire, without matches or lighter. He also made his own weapons to get food by using only his hatchet. This book makes me happy because it shows that you just have to believe in yourself and do what you think is good.
The best part of this book is that it is very easy to read because it doesn't have a lot of hard words. It is also very interesting with a lot of fast action. This story could happen to any person, which makes it more interesting.
I learned from this book that you must trust yourself no matter where you are. Sometimes you can do things that you think are impossible to achieve.
There is only one thing that I would change in this novel; I think that it a little too short at the end. I would make it a little more interesting and longer so it would be nicer to read it.

Summary: Hachet
Review: This novel is a very good and interesting book. It shows how one person can survive in the Canadian wilderness. Brian Robeson was going to Canada to visit his father. The pilot had hardtack and the airplane crash on the lake. But Brian was safe. He slimed away from the sinking wreckage of the plan. When he rested on the shore of the lake that had crashed he got up and tried to look for somewhere to sleep because night was coming. First he lived in the forest and he didn't have anything eat he tried to find something to eat. When he found raspberries he eat too many of them and he threw up because the doesn't good. Brian started new life there. He tried to hunt for animals to get some different food. He even made a fire, which helped him a lot. Brian was there for 54 days, bat he survived.
When I was reading Hatchet I felt born for Brian because he was only 13 years old and he had to be alone. Sometime it was funny when he was doing this stuff because couldn't do it. Overall I thing that this book had good influence on me.
I like this book because it is easy to understand and it is not to long. I also like because I like to read adventure books and books that have a lot action. I learned from this book a lot. The first thing is that you have to always yourself you can't depend on someone. I also learned that if you want to do something you just need to be trying to do it.
I would give this book 9 out of 10. There was nothing that I want to change I thing that it is a very good book.

Hatchet is survival a book. In the book are a lot of hard words. I think this book is boring. I didn't like to read this book. There wasn't a lot of action. I like, stories where there are a lot of actions.
I did like the main character Brian, because he is a strong person. He thinks, about how to survive without being scared. He always think before he does something.

Summary: Hatchet Review
Review: This book is about a thirteen-year-old boy. The boy named Brian Robeson. His parents are divorced. So in the summer he wanted to visit his father because he was living with his mom. He was really happy that he will be able to see his father. Then they started to fly and the pilot had a heart attack and died. Brian was scared and didn't know how to land the plane. I was scared for him too. He started living by himself. He did not know anything about how to live in the wilderness alone. And there were no living people out. He had a lot of challenging things but the most important thing he had was a hatchet it helped him a lot. He learned how to make a fire with the hatchet. He also learned to be careful with this tool since it was a weapon that the coned defend himself with. Brian had changed as a person from this experience he was almost an adult in his thinking. However, I think there could have been more action. It would be more interesting if there was more action. I would give this book 5 point out of 10. I was feeling very sad when he was alone, I was scared for him. I would be crying if I was him. It would be really scary for me being all alone in the wilderness, with all kinds of animals.

Summary: Hatchet By Gary Paulsen Once You Start You Won't Wanna Stop
Review: Brian is a city boy deserted in the lonely Canadian wilderness.
He finds it very hard to survive until he starts to think, when he starts thinking he doesn't want to stop. He finds all his food by hunting and all his shelter by searching through the woods looking for what he needs. The story was great and exciting because when i started to get into it i didn't want to stop!!! The story is all out of the heart and that's why i did not want to stop.................
