Summary: Heather's Amazing Review of The Hatchet
Review: This book was really good. It didn't have pictures, but the words described the setting and characters really well. A boy gets stranded in the woods, and all he has is a hatchet. I think you need to find this book and read it. You could learn alot of things from this book.

Review: Hatchet is a great book. It was exciting to read. I like when Brain catches fish with his spear. When the porcipine came into his cave and he threw his hatchet at it i new that that would be how he would get fire. My favorite part is when the tornado comes and the next morning he sees the plane sticking out of the water. It was a great book.

Summary: Survivor
Review: Having the opportunity to read this book in 4th grade, I was left with a good impression of Paulsen's books. I enjoyed living through the adventures of Brian Robeson. Although I have had some exciting events in my life, I believe his struggle to survive in the wilderness would be quite an adventure.

Paulsen does a good job implementing young adult issues into the adventure, and you can see this through Brian's thoughts throughout the story. After reading Hatchet, I ventured on to read many of Paulsen's books such as The Voyage of the Frog, Dogsong, Canyons, and The Foxman. Many of these stories were similar in nature but with different plots. I was also intrigued to learn of Paulsen's other books regarding slavery and other issues.

I would recommend this book to any young adult, and many of Paulsen's other books.

Summary: DO NOT READ THIS BOOK!
Review: This book was terrible! If there was an option of zero stars that's what I'd give this book. (...) My mom gave this book to me and I was eager to start it, but about three chapters into it I had to put it down. About two months later I picked it up again thinking of giving it another chance. No way am I ever going to finish this book I thought after geting about 3/4 through. And I didn't! Now I refuse to read any other books by Gary Pulsen. EVER!

Summary: Hatchet
Review: This book Is by far the greatest out door survival book i have read. Gary paulsen is from Minnesota making him very known to woodland conditions. Gary did a great job, I highly recomend this book for anyone who likes the woods. I think this book is great for kids, and even adults. I hope Brian can go back and live in the woods someday to be happy again. I hope that Gary makes another part to this story becuase i know it would be as good as " HATCHET ".

In the story,Addie and her two brothers,Burt and Lew,come in contact with some indians. Also,Addie and Burt escape from a prarie fire while her parents were building their new house. This was a good story.

Summary: Better Than I Thought It Would Be!
Review: Not Bad. Its about Brian who is flying in a plane going to go see his father but the pilot gets a heart attack. Brian was scared and didn't know what to do. The plane ends up falling in an L shaped lake. All Brian has now is his hatchet that his mother has left him. So now he is stuck in an area that he has no idea where he is. He is there for about two months. He learned how to make a fire and hunt for berries. A great story!

Summary: ...review of Hatchet
Review: I liked the book "Hatchet" because there was a boy who survives in the wild with just a hatchet. In the book, a plane crashes and the boy survives. When help comes, after a long period of time, he leaves. I think it's really neat. Sometimes I feel like that boy because I'm surviving in the world with only what I know.
