Summary: I liked it but I wish it had a more descriptive ending .
Review: Dear Gary Paulsen, I love your books. I especially like HATCHET, THE RIVER, and BRIAN'S WINTER. I think BRIAN'S WINTER needs a better ending though. Otherwise I am your biggest fan. I also love where you live.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A great book filled with anventure in the wilderness!!!

A young boy crash in a plane in the middle of a forest and has to live on the land with only a hatchet and the survival supplies in the plane. Will he make it during the cold Canadian winter? Find out for yourself when you read Brian's Winter.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: needs more excitement
Review: Though Gary Paulsen is capable of amazing stories,I feel that Brian's Winter lacked the exciting events that were so plentiful in Hatchet. I understand that in Brian's Winter, Brian was supposed to face "a peril worse than summer", but that speculation was not my opinion.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Better than Hatchet I would say
Review: I have never read a book that has a better sequel than its original book but Brians Winter was definatly as good if not better than Hatchet. They are two extremely descriptive books which I adore.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Fantastic!! What true wilderness survival really is!
Review: Even though I am much older now, and have read many books about the wilderness and survival growing up. This was one of the first books I have read that actually captures the true Spirit of wilderness survival and living with the Earth. I feel that many of our own youngsters can benift and learn from this book. It is truely a masterpiece!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the best books EVER !!!!!!
Review: I read hatchet 6 times and this one 3 times( so far ). I think gary Paulsen is a master when it comes to writing books on the wilderness

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Brian's winter
Review: In the book Brian's Winter by Gray Phaulson, a 13 year old boy gets stuck on an island by himself; after a plane crash. This book is interesting and exciting.
Brian Robeson had just been in a plane crash on his way to visit his father. When the plane crash Robeson ended up on the Canadian wilderness by stranded himself. Robeson soon learned how to live on his own and survive by himself. Using his intelligence, his instincts, and the only weapon he had a hatchet. As he lives through the fall he learns to make a fort to live in, a bow and arrowheads. He also leaned how to hunt. Robeson lived trough the fall he also found more weapons, lighters, pots and pans. He found all of his tools on the plane that he had crashed in. Robeson lived every day of his life as an adventure by hunting and gathering wood for fires. Robeson also faced times where it would be really cold and rain all day so it was hard to find dried wood. He knew that his deadliest fear was coming soon.
One major strength of this novel is that it is interesting. This story is interesting because you get to see how he learns to adapt to his environment by, making things that helps him survive. Some of those things where weapons such as a bow and arrow heads. Some other things that were interesting was the way he learned how to hunt, and cook his food. It was also interesting how he made a fort and his clothing. Another strength of this book is that it is exciting. This book was exciting because Robeson gets in really tight spots where he cheats death. Another reason why this book is exciting is because; he lives every day of his life that he is stranded as in adventure. Those are just some of this novels major strength.
In other words this novel was interesting and exciting because of what Robeson does and what happens to him. This book would be enjoyed by people of all ages.
