Summary: Hatchet
Review: ...The pilot let him take the wheel only for a moment on Brian's side of the plane. The pilot was still in the pilot seat when he died of the heart attack. Brian then took the wheel on his side of the plane as the pilot had showed him previously and tried to land the plane as best as possible. He landed in a small lake and began his man vs. nature ordeal.

Review: This book is about a boy named Brian. His parents get divorced and he crashes the plane that was taking him to see his dad on the Canadian oil field he works at. He survives with only a hatchet by building a house which gets invaded by a skunk, a porcupine, and finally ripped down by a bear. He decides to build it better and it seems as though he'll be okay, until he has a bad day when he gets hit with a tornado and a moose. The tornado rips down his new house and so he swims to the plane, gets the supplies, turns on the emergency transmitter, and gets rescued.

Review: If you want to read a good book I would recommend the Hatchet. I would recommend this book to others because it is exciting and has many near death experiness. The characters are great. My favorite character is Brian because he is brave,smart,and very consistant .There are many good moments but the best moment is when brian catches a fish because he has a chance of living. So if you want a book with excitment and adventure go pick up the Hatchet.

Summary: Hatchet
Review: The book Hatchet was a very good book, at least I thought it was. I really enloyed it. I think that he was very smart to stay in one place, and not to roam around and get even more lost. Thirteen year old Brian was lucky to have a hatchet, because without it he would have not been able to make fire or a shelter. I really loved this book.

Summary: One of my favorite books as a kid
Review: I recommend The Hatchet to any family, kids and adults. Paulsen balances outdoor survival truths with exciting thrills. (He doesn't wrestle a bear or anything ridiculous) It's an accurate yet entertaining story of survial. Never boggled down with unnecessary diversions, or dumbed down to a younger audience, it remains one of those prized pieces of literature for older children.

Summary: A reader from Boulder, Colorado
Review: I first read this book in middle school and still read it once a year in college. It reminds me that life is not all about material goods and that trials such as the ones Brian went through can deeply affect a person. I would recommend all of the Brian books: Hatchet, Brian's Winter, the River and Brian's return.
