         The book "Hatchet" is about a teenager who get stranded in Canada. Brian is the teenager. Brian was on his way to visit his dad, when his pilot had a heart attack. The plane crashed in water and Brian had a hard time. He had to swim to shore and figure out what to do. Now he is alone in the wilderness and he has to use his skills to find his way out and find his dad. I think that this book would be a good book for people that like a heart-beating and suspenseful book. I think that readers that can wait for a little bit will like this book more. The real action doesn't start until the end of the book towards the middle end. I would give this book a 4.5/5 stars.
