Summary: An intriguing, suspenseful, fictitious action tale.
Comment: A must read for the adventure seeker and wilderness lover!Brian Robeson, thirteen, boards a small bush plane along with thepilot. He is going to visit his father in Canada, after his parent's separation, knowing the secret, the reason for their divorce. Brian leaves New York with a hatchet, a parting gift from his mother. Most of the book is about Brian's experiences on his own, learning to take from nature to find food and shelter, learning to hunt and fish and protect himself. Does he live? Is he saved? These questions keep the reader intrigued for all 195 pages of the text. Brian is a strong, well developed character. He evolves, learns and matures from his experience. His story is one of bravery, determination, and the power of positive thinking. Gary Paulsen's writing style is naturally flowing, highly descriptive, and easy to read. The book is a fast read, but is easy to set down and pick up again without losing one's place in the story. A Newbery Honor Book that deserves to be read!

Summary: hatchet
Comment: Brian Robeson was on his way to visit his father in Canada, when the pilot had a heart attack and died. The plane crashed into the lake and now Brian is stuck in Canadian wilderness alone with just his hatchet. Brian needs to find food, place to live and most importantly to survive. Brian had to learn to overcome his self-pity and managed to find food. With hard work Brian made a fire, was able to make a spear and catch a fish.
Now even Brian sees the change in himself. Brian understands how different he became in these weeks. What kind of danger he met and survived, how he became stronger fighting with a bear and moose. How important is do not make any mistakes, because they can cost you your life.
I liked this book because it is full of adventures. I enjoy reading this book, because the vocabulary wasn't too hard. I learned a lot from this book. I learned that you could do whatever you put your mind to. If I could change a novel I would like that Brian would find his survival pack sooner. I would rate this book ten out of ten, because it is a great novel for everybody.

Summary: good, but not too good
Comment: I had to read this book for a school project, and let's just say it was pretty bad. I've read many better survival stories that were a little more realistic than this. But, Hatchet has taught me a lesson: Pay attention to all that's around...you'll never know when you'll end up in a situation like Brian's.
