Summary: "Hatchet" The Best Book Ever
Review: I think Hatchet is the best book the Gary Paulsen ever wrote. I think that because this book Hatchet won a newberry honor book.
This book has everything a book needs because it has adventure, I cant say anything else because you have to read Hatchet for yourself to believe me. If you read Hatchet it will change your life like it changed mine because the main charactor Bryan has to survive on the island that he lands on well he actually crahses on because his pilot had got a heart attack and thats what he had to do to survive or else he would have landed in the ocean and had a watery grave. I recommend this book to anybody that likes to read.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Hatchet ...I loved This Book
Review: Do you absolutley love the outdoors? If you do then HATCHET is the book for you. Thirteen year old Brian Robeson was in a single engine plane on his way to visit his father. Then something happened to the pilot and the plane crashed in the northwoods. Brian only had his clothes and a hatchet his mother gave him as a gift. Throughout his stay in the woods Brian had to find some way to survive. He used his hatchet to get food and to build his shelter. After being stranded for a very long time he realizes what he can do. Brian had a series of events and they will sure to make your heart pump. I totally loved this book, action, drama, and it shows what one person can do with so little. I would recomend this book to everybody.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Hatchet--Fight for the Fittest
Review: Do you like drama, tragedy, and action? If you do the novel HATCHET would be a great book to read! It starts out as a normal day in New York for Brian Robeson. He misses his father who lives in Canada. He wanted to visit him. He traveled there by plane. But on that day something tragic happened that will leave a scar for Brian for the rest of his life. The pilot had a heart attack! Brian cried out for help through the CB but no one responded. He tried and tried but still no answers. The plane crashed in the middle of the Canadian wilderness where he was stranded helplessly. Luckily Brain had survived the crash, he only had a few things to survive with such as a hatchet. He found many other things aboard in the plane's survival kit and many other weapons such as a rifle with a few shells. Brian never gave up hope no matter what the circumstances were. He had many flashbacks of his family which made him feel bad but also helped him out with his fight and his will to see his loved ones once again. He finds out new ways of doing things every day in the woods which was a struggle nothing was ever easy he finds shelter it looked like a pack of wolves would live but it was abandoned. Every day was a fight and he perseveres but can that still help him to his survival? Will he ever get rescued ? Will he ever see his parents ever again ? Hatchet was a great book with a lot of action, drama, and tragedy. I recommend this book to everyone. I give this book five out of five stars because it's in great detail, and very addicting. You get eager to see what's next.

Summary: Sooooo boring!!
Review: In English class earlier this semester, the book the Hatchet was the topic of all of our novel studies, and english discussions! We were told to read the book in two weeks and prepare a good solid essay on our points of view! This book was soo boring. I actually found myself skipping chapters just so that I could get through the book faster! It is soo dumb how all of a sudden he is in the middle of a tornado and how a moose is running him over?!? Soo many times in my essay I found myself using the words boring and lame. This book is annoyingly dumb and I can't understand how any one person can enjoy such a lame book! To sum up this review I write--- World class yah right!!!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Hatchet
Review: Hatchet starts off when Brian and a pilot named Jake take off from New York to go see Brains dad. After they took off, Jake let Brian fly the plane. Brain was very nervous when he took the controls. Jake didnt let him fly that long because it was windy. After that Brain saw Jake grabbing his right arm. Brian knew the he was having a heart attack. Brian didn't know what to do. Jake died and Brian tried to use the radio, nothing. So Brian had to fly the plane by himself. He ran out of gas and had to crash the plane into a lake the was shaped like an "L".

Summary: Stranded, Alone in Canada
Review: Hatchet is a fictional story about a boy named Brian Robeson who is stranded after his plane crashes somewhere in Canada. Gary Paulson writes Hatchet. Brian is on his way to visit his father in Canada. His mother gave him a hatchet as a gift. He put it on to please her. Brian never took off the hatchet. It was a private flight and they did not ask him to take it off. He did not know that this hatchet would save his life. Over the next couple of months he would learn how to get food, build shelter, and survive all together. He must keep a secret from his parents divorce from tearing him apart. The very water he drinks is from the lake that contains the plane, and the body of the dead pilot. Brian will have to face many natural problems such as tornadoes, storms, moose, wolves, bears, mosquitoes and many more. I loved this book and I recommend this to anyone who loves adventure books.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Hatchet By:Gary Paulsen
Review: The main Character in Hatchet is a 13year old boy named Brian Robeson. This book is about how Brian Robeson faces the troubles of surviving in the middle of the Canadian woods. His parents are divorced and he is going to visit his father in Canada. On his way to Canada on a plane, the bush pilot has a heart attack and dies. What will he do next? The theme of this story was not giving up. Brian could've just given up right when the pilot died, but he will stop at nothing to survive the treacherous Canadian woods. I very much liked this story. It made me feel like I was in the story all along. Well, that is all I have to say about the wonderful book of Hatchet

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Hatchet
Review: This book is called Htachet because the boy names Brian was going to see his dad ( who got divorced by Brian's mother ). But when he is riding in the plane, he doesn't know that his pilot is going to have a heart attack and die, land the plane by a lake, build his own shelter, and run into some wild animals! He still has a lot more to learn to. One of the things he learned is that he has to trust in himself. He has a lot more to learn. Find out what in Hatchet.
I liked this book because when I looked at the cover I thought it was an adventure book. When I read the first page I got so sucked into the book that I didn't put it down until I read it front to cover. And I usually don't like adventure books. The autor makes this book so understanding that youu can just picture everthing when you read it. It also makes you feel like you are Brian. Take it from somenone who has read the book and read it.
