Summary: Great Read
Review: This book is about a boy named Brian Roebson who is about to see his father and he has to board a plane to get there. But, the pilot gets a heart attack and Brian is left to fly the plane solo but doesn't know how. The plane crashes in the wilderness in Canada in a L shaped lake and he is stranded in the wilderness without food and he doesn't know anything about surviving. The pilot is dead and there is nobody he can speak to get him out of there. also winter is coming up soon and has to hurry and get out of there or else he may freeze to death. This book is beautifully made and Gary Paulsen really made readers feel what it is like to be all alone in the wilderness surviving. I definetly recommend this book.

Summary: Ah, no.
Review: Oh, sure, Paulsen is brilliant. And in theory, this book should be, too. Paulsen does a good job of writing, but he does in the wrong way. It's far from a Swiss Family Robonson or a Robinson Crusoe. Heck, after this, you'll be yerning for Gilligan's Island! With little events and nothing happening, the book gets old...fast.

Summary: Great Outdoors Lover Book
Review: Paulsen did a wonderful job with this book. It contains the ancient struggle of Man vs. Nature. This novel gives detailed discripions of how Brian survived. Good book.

Summary: Hatchet is one of the most popular books in our library!
Review: "Hatchet" has consistently been one of the most popular adventure books in our elementary school library since it was published. It is often the first book to get boys hooked on reading, however girls like it, too! "Hatchet" is part of a great tradition of survival stories like, "My Side of the Mountain," "Island of the Blue Dolphins," "Call it Courage," "The Sign of the Beaver," "The Iceberg Hermit," "The Cay," "Incident at Hawk's Hill," and "Julie of the Wolves." Highly recommended.

Summary: hatchet
Review: Imagine flying to your dad's house in the woods for a summer visit. When everything seems just fine, your plane crashes. Your pilot dies on impact. There you are stranded in the wilderness. All you have is the hatchet that your mother gave you and the clothes on your back. You have to go throught a lot of hard, life threatening challengees. Brian, the boy who this happened to in the book, met death eye to eye. He had many problems he hade to face in the fight for survival. He definetely had the will to survive. If he didn't have that he would have died the first day in the wilderness. This book will keep you reading cover to cover, turning page after page, just wondering what will happen next to Brian. So do your self a favor and read this great book.

Summary: Excellent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Review: I read this when I was 12 years old (a long time ago) and LOVED it! When you read about a boy (who appeared spoiled) who has to make it on his own--completely on his own in the middle of nowhere, it really gives you a new perspective. Especially when things happen that completely destroy everything that he worked so hard for. This is an excellent book.

Summary: Hatchet
Review: Brian, a teenager from New York, was going to visit his father and the pilot of the plane he was in died and crashes the plane. It is up to Brian to find food and protect himself until the rescue plane finds him. If you read this book you will find out what he dose to stay alive. He discovers many conflicts on his journey to survival. This book is excellent for kids 8 and up.
