Journal entry #2

We just finished a book called 'Hatchet' by Gary Paulsen. It is about a boy called Brian, who is on a flight to visit his father. The pilot has a heart attack and he crash lands in a lake. My favourite part is when he is out hunting with his bow, and he doesn't see a moose a couple of meters away from him, and he upsets the moose and the moose comes and pounds on him, Brian tried wrestling it off but he had no luck. He got very bad bruised ribs, hurt his arms and he lost his bow in the action. We had to make a dustcover for the book, and here is the blurb I wrote: 13 year old Brian Robeson is traveling over the Canadian Rockies to visit his father in the Canadian oil fields. But, when the pilot suffers from a heart attack, he gets much more than he bargained for. He crash lands in a mysterious lake, and he has only one tool to help him survive, a hatchet. I highly recomend this book, it is really cool. I would rate it 10 out of 10.

"The Hatchet" By Gary Pulsen.

We just finished reading "The Hatchet" by Gary Pulsen. It was a story about a city boy that knows nothing about the wild and is on a one man flight on the way to his dads in the oil rigs of Canada. But, When the pilot has a heart attack. He crash lands in a lake and lives in the wild for over 3 months. The story has ups and downs, but it is one of my favourites.
