I've read this book in school. It really wasn't my type of book to read. There's a REALLY old movie about this and I've watched it about 2 times, I still don't like it.
Hachet was and is a great book. It's about a 13 year old boy named:Brian Robertson who went to visit his father. After his plane crashes Brian has to test his skills against mother nature

Dear fellow readers, The book Hatchet is about a thirteen-year old named Brian. He is flying on a plane to visit his farther, but little did he know that the universe had other plans in store for him. After his plane crashed in a forest, due to a tragic event, Brian (a city boy) is now being tested on his survival skills. In my opinion, Hatchet is one of the best stories that have ever been written. Will this city boy be able to survive in an unfamiliar and unknown enviorment?
