Hatchet is about a boy Brian who is flying to his father’s place after a divorce between his parents. And on the way tragic things happen and he ends up facing the Canadian wilderness on his own.
I think the character (Brian) changes thoughout the book because at first he was little over weight and everyone does mostly everything for him but little bit further into the book he changes because he starts doing things on his own like getting himself something to eat making his own shelter and getting wood to make stuff, he also loses weight in the book.
The author, Gary Paulsen, explains the book well. Paulsen creates real and interesting images for example: when he is in the plane and when he gets his food yes the author creates some dramatic scenes and death related, some of the scenes aren't that exciting but there are some scenes that are very exciting the author creates urgency in some parts because its really exciting and you just want to keep on reading until you get to the main part that your waiting for . And it is a dramatic life for the main character, Brian the author uses descriptive words. And creates good images in your head it`s a good book . And the author has a good ending to the book. If your the sort of person who likes a book that has adventure dramatic scenes and death scenes in it . It’s a realistic Fiction book ( It could happen).
I rate this book 8 out of 10
