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 was an amazing book! When Brian is in a plane crash while on his way to his father's house with only a Hatchet. He learns to use survival skills to hunt, find water, and signal others to save him.
I like it because teaches me how to survive in the cold woods, Brian is not that older than me and I don't know how I could survive
I really really like this book, survival skills with just what little Brian had with him or could find around him, in the cold woods of canada
I really like this book, because it is very realistic and you see survival skills and how Brian got creative with the little things he had with him
