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 this book so much.It's about a boy named Brian Robenson who gets lost in the Canadian wilderness and recalls ways to survive until he is saved by someone .He survives with only his hatchet his mom gave him.
Gary Paulsen is a superb writer.All of his books are wonderfully written and full of adventure that captures you inside the story.Hatchet is one of the best!
I really liked this book i read it over the summer.Garry Paulsen describes Brian the main character Brian's pain so well you feel like you are in the book feeling his pain. Well anyway read this book it is a really good book and uses a lot of great descriptive words.
Hatchet by Gary Paulsen is a really cool book that is about this boy who is stranded in a forest, I think it said in Canada, when he flies to visit his dad.
Looks very interesting! I want to read it.

i had to read this book for school in literature, but it was pretty good. nothing really heart-stopping happens, but it's the perfect book for people that like books about survival.
