This book was very good and very entertaining as well. For me it was a pretty easy book to understand vocabulary and it only took me about a week to finish it because it only had 181 pages ( not including the extra pages on the back that had questions on the book for an activity, if i would have included those pages the whole book would've been 186 pages long. ) Overall it was a VERY good book and i highly enjoyed it.

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.

i love "hatchet" it is amazing how gary paulsen uses point of view in hatchet.
Hatchet was an interesting and *addictive* book, but I think there could have been more to the plot. Overall, the book and the format is awesome!
I had to read this over the summer for reading in 6th Grade so good luck I'm going to let you 5th graders see how it is to me so/so to you ?
