Summary: a book suitable for English classes
Review: In this book, Brian had to survive in the Canadian wilderness because the plane which he had ridden have crashed. Through this life, he learned how to survive by making mistakes. Though0 I could't find this book's message at first, as the story goes on I found the interest of book. But there are descriptions which are too real to read. I don't like the kind of these discripotion. I like this book because it is no only about adventure but also has some messages. Superficially, the central od this story is how to survive and about his life in wilderness. But I think that the book include any type of messages. For example, about divorce, overcoming something like that. However I don't want to recommend this book to my friends who study English because they may not be able to understand and find the interest of the book. I think that I could't like it without discussion at class.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Hatchet's review
Review: I think this book is the one of the best outdoor adventure story. I recommend to other ESL student. Because, this book is not to hard to read and it's very exciting story. Brian's parents are wanted to divorce. Brian knew about mother's cheating. so, he wants to tell his father. But, when he was in the way to go his father, his plane crashed. Hewas starded in the wilderness alone. He learned how to survive, make a fire, how to hunt, how to make shelter... Brian going to change his character. First time, he was very weak, but he became strong person. I think is very good for teenagers or for English student. This book make reader to think about different from our normal life's situation. This book is very good book. but, this book's end part is so rapidly finish. This part is only feel the lack of this book.

Rating: 4 stars

Summary: Do you like adventure?
Review: In this book, 13-year-old Brian had to live in wildness because of an plane accident. As time went on, his thought began to chage.... When I was a child I went camping in summer, so I knew a little about how difficult to live without electricity and gas. You will enjoy Brian's adventure, But sometimes I didn't think it is possible for a city boy to do something written in this book. At any rate, I recommend this book to younger people!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: for young people...
Review: 13-year-old goy,Brian,was left alone accident near the lake because of the air plane accident. He had to survive there until someone, especially his parents,will rescue him. Being worried about his parents' devorce, he tried hard to live. Then he grew an adult from a child little by little. I think that this book is expressing 13-year-old boy's feelings well.Probably many young people could feel sympathy for Brian. While, I think that the advance of the story is slow. Perhaps some peoplefeel irritated, but this story would give you something good.This book sould be read by young people, or who wants to remind the youth ful days.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: survival!
Review: Brian who was thirteen years old survived in the wildness alone. He learned many things through the survival and he's been twice man he was. I like the gradation of Brian's growth. Because he was weak when he arrived, but he became strong and brave little by little. Also, the Hatchet taught me many important things. For example, "never give up". I want to recommend this book to everyone without regard to age or sex. If you read it, you can learn somothing important from the Hachet.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: You can find yourself!!
Review: Brian was thirteen years old. He rode on a small plane. But the pilot died of heart attack. So he had to fly plane and decided to land it a near by lake. Then he started to survive. His one of lifelines was the hatchet that had given him by his mothor.The hatchet was Brian himself. This book made me excited.Sometimes I felt happy , sometimes I felt sad with Brian. I think this book is a checkered story. I could travel to the bush with Brian. I learned how to survive. Brian did everything possible to live. He was so brave. I could see his development. If you want to find yourself, you should read this book. Probably you can find the new way that you should advance.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A great book to teach from
Review: This book is about 13-year-old Brian Paulson who gets stranded in the Candaian wilderness and has to survive both physical and mental trials. The book is great for intermediate English as a Second Language students, even adults. Because the book explores themes of survival, family issues like divorce, and the process of maturing, there are lots of things to talk about. Also, the language, sentence structure, and vocabulary and great for ESL students.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Great book!!
Review: This book is about a boy named Brian. He has a secret which he only knows. It's his parents' divorce. On the way to meet his father who lives in wilderness, he have accident, so he arrives lake in small island. He contends with many obstacles and difficulties to survive. In my opinion, this book suggests us many things. First , parent's divorce affects their children badly. Second, Someone who is in bad situation can be well if he strive hard. So I think it's one of the best books which I've read. Because it gives people bravery and hope. I want to recommend this people who are badly situated.
