Summary: Brian's Winter
Comment: In the novel Brian's Winter a boy named Brian Robeson gets in a plane crash in the Canadian wilderness. He was stuck there for about 94 days now. Well with in those days Brian made a lot of mistakes like not look at what is going on around you like the weather for example. Well Brian did pay attention to the animals like the beavers, bears, wolves, and rabbits. Brian first came to the Canadian wilderness with just a hatchet. But when Brian finally noticed what was going on around him he made things like snowshoes and a parka to help him survive.
I liked the novel Brian's Winter because it gives you a lot of good survival tips to know how to live in the wilderness, if it ever happens to you at all in your lifetime. I also had a connection or to, like when he felt bad when he killed the animals, but you need to for you to survive. I also liked the way that the author kept on making you guess what was going to happen. That is what made me want to read the book more and more One of the dislikes that I had in the novel was that some of the graphics of when he killed some animals I thought it was gross.
I think I would rate this book a 9 out of 1-10 because of some of the graphics but other than that I think it was a rather good book.

Summary: All By Himself
Comment: MISSING, YOUNG BOY IN CANADIAN WILDERNESS. Brian's Winter is a great book, written by a great author, known as Gary Paulsen. A thirteen-year-old boy named Brian Robeson is visiting his dad in Canada for the summer. When he gets on a plane to go there, the pilot had a heart attack and died. That meant that Brian had to take over and try to land the plane in a safe place somewhere in the wilderness. Brian is faced with many different challenges to overcome to survive in the wilderness. Brian is left with nothing, no food, clean water, shelter only a hatchet. Brian wants to survive this crash very badly, so he gets to work thinking about how he can build a shelter and more weapons. Will Brian be able to survive scorching heat and freezing cold weather?
Brian's Winter was a very fun and great book to read because of the way the author, Gary Paulsen writes. Gary Paulsen writes with very great detail to make the readers feel like they are Brian. Brian's Winter is filled with many chapters that at the end there is a cliffhanger to make you want to keep reading. Once you begin to read this book, you do not want to put it down because of how interesting it is, and there's no good spot to stop at. After reading this book, I feel that I have learned a little something about what it would be like to be stranded in the wilderness for over 3 months with almost nothing. I also feel that Gary Paulsen wrote this book to explain to readers what it would be like to be in the wilderness and that its not as easy as some people think. Gary Paulsen picked a very good setting for this book because of the different weather changes. Canada has very hot summers and very cold winters with many feet of snow. Brian Robeson is also a very good person to be in this position because he is a very intelligent person. Over all I would rate this book at about a 9 because it's a great book and it gets the reader thinking about what's going on and what's going to happen. I would definitely recommend this book to other people because its very descriptive and it's a very easy book to understand and to read.

Summary: Cold Winter
Comment: Brian a thirteen year old boy doing what he can to survive the harsh winter in the strange new world. Brian was going to visit his dad in Canada for the summer. But a tragic freak accident happened causing the plane to go down in the middle of nowhere. Brian was the only one to survive the crash. He also had survived the summer.
But Fall had come and he started to notice the changes slowly. Brian knew he had to get ready for winter because he did not know how bad of a winter would come. So he started to gather supplies he would need. First Brian made things that would help him survive the winter cold. Next, he learned on how to fight and survive in the new this new world. Third, Brian learned the many skills he would need to know. Finally, Brian learned what he was truly capable of doing. Still in the winter stranded alone Brian must still survive.
Gary Paulsen had done an excellent job with this story. He made it seem very realistic. He was very descriptive and wrote very well. But he could have made the story a little longer and some of the chapters a little longer. Gray had made Brain an excellent character; he hadn't made him very good mentally. But other wise Brian was a well-written character. I would rate it at 4 stars out of 4, because of how well written the story was and how well written Brian was. This Story would be recommended for everyone and a lot of beginner readers, because how well written the plot was. Also for the beginner readers it's good because how descriptive Gray Paulsen had been for the story.
