LOST
Brian Robertson, sole passenger on a Cessna 406, is on his way to visit his father when the tiny bush plane crashes in the Canadian wilderness. With nothing but his clothing, a tattered windbreaker, and the hatchet his mother had given him as a present, Brian finds himself completely alone.
Challenged by his fear and despair -- and plagued with the weight of a dreadful secret he's been keeping since his parent's divorce -- brian must tame his inner demons in order to survive. It will take all his know-how and determination, and more courage than he knew he possessed.

This book is really exciting. It can be gross, but it is really easy and fun to read. You neeeeeeeeed to read this book.
This is a really good book about survival that i really enjoyed!!!
My teacher read it in class and i read along with her because she had extra copies. Almost my whole class got copies and some thought it was weird to read along with her because she was already reading the book. In this book Bryan's parents are divorced and on his way to his dad's house he gets in a plane crash because the pilot had a heart attack.Bryan started to get the hang of hunting and washing. He comes through the tough and the easy , but he gets home safely. Bryan gets stuck there for like a year or to.

Read this in class. SO cool!
I think this book is amazing but on other websites it says he tries to commit suicide by slitting his wrist but i never heard it
I have recently read the book Hatchet by Gary Paulsen. The book Hatchet is about a boy named Brian flying to see his Dad. The plane crashes and Brian is stranded in the middle of nowhere. Brian faces many challenges like harsh weather, deadly animals, and hunting for food. One day there is a tornado that brings part of the plane out of the lake. Brian goes inside and finds a kit containing a emergency transmitter. After flipping the switch on, they come to rescue him. I liked the book a lot because it was very interesting. He had to face a lot of hard challenges to survive the wilderness. Hatchet is considered a realistic fiction story. It is a story that could take place today and the setting is in Canada, which is a real place. The events in the story could happen in real life. I would recommend this book to readers who like adventure stories and the outdoors. They would enjoy this book because it is a story on how to survive the outdoors. Also, Brian goes through many adventures throughout the book. In Hatchet, Brian faces internal and external conflicts. An internal conflict he had was the struggle of killing an animal for food. An external conflict he had was surviving the harsh weather. Overall, the book Hatchet was a great book and I enjoyed reading it.
