Publisher Comments:

In Hatchet, 13-year-old Brian Robeson learned to survive alone in the Canadian wilderness, armed only with his hatchet. Finally, as millions of readers know, he was rescued at the end of the summer. But what if Brian hadn't been rescued? What if he had been left to face his deadliest enemy--winter?

Gary Paulsen raises the stakes for survival in this riveting and inspiring story as one boy confronts the ultimate test and the ultimate adventure.

Review:

"Paulsen crafts a companion/sequel to Hatchet containing many of its same pleasures...Read together, the two books make his finest tale of survival yet."

--Kirkus Review, Pointer

"Paulsen at his best."

--Booklist

"Breathtaking...mesmerizing."

--School Library Journal

This book is realy interesting and it spires many people.It is a really good book to read and it is good for the kids because it expands their mind more and lets them know that there is more than home and what could happen to you and what to do when a plain crashes and that you have to do what ever it takes to survive or at least try.
