Hatchet, by Gary Paulsen
Brian Robeson is the main character of this book and his parents are divorced. His dad lives in Canada and he is going to go visit him for the summer. As he is flying there, there are some unexpected circumstances. His plane crashes and he is stranded in the middle of the woods in Canada. He has to try and survive in the middle of the woods on his own. His only tool for survival is his hatchet, it is his only weapon and his only thing to hunt with and make his shelter and a fire and weapons that he needs to survive. He faces many unexpected challenges that he has to overcome. I liked almost everything with this book. The one thing that I would change is some of the details in the middle of the book. At times it got a little boring, the author would just start talking about the same routines that he was doing each day and it got a little repetitive. and there could have been a little bit more action, but other than that it was very good. I like the way the author wrote the book, when there was action it was very good and I never knew what was going to happen next. If you like survival books then this is the book for you. Or if you like the books where you can’t tell what is going to happen next then this is the book for you. I would give this book 3 out of 4 stars because it was really good but at times it was a little boring. I would recommend this book to people ages 12 and up. Overall this was a very good book and I strongly recommend that you read it.
