Today I will tell you about the book named Hatchet by Gary Paulsen. It was published in September 30,1987.The characters in this book are Brian, Brian’s mom/dad,and Terry. This book in my opinion for grade level is 3-6 This book is about a kid named Brian whose mom gives him a hatchet and then gets into a bush plane to fly to his dad and during the fight they have trouble,and Brian has to survive in the wild. Read the book for more.I like this book because it is crazy what a kid will do to survive. I recommend this book for thrill seekers.
