Title: I had to bring a flashlight into bed to finish this book!
Review: I picked this book because a boy in my 4th grade class did a book report on it and the story sounded interesting. And was it ever! Brian gets a hatchet as a gift from his mother, and when his little plane crashes in a lake in the Canadian wilderness, he finds many ways to use his new hatchet to keep himself alive. He uses his hatchet to protect himself from a porcupine that tries to attack him in the middle of the night; he also uses the hatchet to make firewood to keep himself warm at night. Brian spends 54 days in the woods, by himself. A twister turns the crashed plane so that the tail sticks out of the lake, and another plane, flying overhead, sees the tail sticking out of the water. The pilot lands his plane on the lake and when he sees Brian he realizes he's found the kid that searchers stopped looking for weeks ago. Remember this book when you go the bookstore, it's great!
