Rating: Summary: The River Review: Two years before this story takes place, Brian Robeson survived in the wilderness with only a hatchet. Now the government wants him to do it again. After great persuasion he agrees to go with a man named Derek. Derek will take notes. Brian only goes with a knife. Derek gets hit by a bolt of lightning and falls into a coma. What can Brian do? He could stay, and Derek might die from thirst or he could build a raft and paddle down-river 100 mi. to a trading post and risk his own life.

Rating: Summary: The River, By Gary Paulsen Review: I have read many of Gary Paulsen's books, and they all continue to amaze me with his wonderful writing style. This book, however, I rated as having 3 stars because I found it a little hard to understand... his movements we're not as pronounced and I couldn't picture it in my head. The plot line was a little slow, but overall it was a great read. A wonderful action adventure book.
Rating: Summary: the car by gary paulson Review: the book,the car,by Gary Paulson is full of Action and Suspence if you like stories with Adventure youll enjoy this one the most Important part of the book is when Terry the main character learned how to drive the car.He was Afraid that the Cops were going to catch Him ,but thay never did. if Terry didnt build the car and travel West he would have never Met the other characters. the setting makes the story exciting becuase its an adventurus book. the setting is always changing as Terry Travels ,and that makes the story very interesting. overall I really liked this book. I think it would be cool to have Adventures like Terry did. I Think that others should try this Book.!!
Rating: Summary: The River Review: The River is the follow up to the popular book Hatchet. In this book, government officials ask Brian to relive his wilderness adventure so that they can learn his survival techniques. Brian is hesitant about going back to the place that he was so glad to get out of. However, he agrees to go so that others can learn what he did. A official from the government comes with him to take notes on what Brian did, and everthing seems to be going well. Unfortunatly, good fortune does not last forever. During a storm one night, the government official is hit with lightning and left in a comna. Knowing that the man will not survive very long, Brian decides to build a raft and float the man down the river to help. This story is about Brian's journey down river and the struggles he has to face. I only gave it three stars due to the fact that the story can easily be read in one sitting and lacks body. It seems that Gary Paulsin does not know when to stop writing about Brian, and this story proves that. It could have been better, but I would still recomend reading it if you enjoyed Hatchet.

Rating: Summary: A great sequal to Hatchet Review: The River is a wonderful book about Brian's return to the North Canadian woods in which he previously survived for 54 days armed only with a hatchet. This time he goes with Derek and 2 knives. Derek is a teacher who teaches people how to survive in the woods with a limited amount of items. He wants to see how Brian survived when he was alone in the woods. Then Derek could teach his pupils about surviving like Brian did. This was a great book. My favorite part is when Derek gets gets in a coma.
Rating: Summary: A great book for everyone Review: I recommend this book to everyone. You should read this book because it is an interesting story about a 15-year old city boy named Brian that has to go back to the wilderness and try to survive. In the book,"Hatchet" Brian crashes in the wilderness on the way to see his father. The pilot dies and he is left alone to survive. Now in the book,"The River" the goverment is asking him to go back and do it again to teach people how to survive if they are in a crisis that Brian had when he crashed. Brian agrees and Derek,one of the people from the goverment, goes with him. The story turns into an exciting adventure when Brian not only has to save himself but also another person. This is a great book that Gary Paulsen wrote. Read this book and i'm sure that you will like it as much as i did.
