Title: A Scoutmaster on Gary Paulson's, &amp;amp;amp;quot; Hatchet&amp;amp;amp;quot;
Review: As a Scoutmaster I am often given the task of introducing young men to the wonders and hazards of the wilderness for their first time. "Hatchet" is recommended reading, by this Scoutmaster, for all Scouts. Growing up in rural Kentucky, I spent many a wonderous hour in the Appalachian Foothills and learned to love and respect nature at it's best and worst. I tell my boys that nature rewards knowledge and seldom forgives foolishness or ignorance. Nature is neither cruel or kind; it is what is.&quot;Hatchet&quot; illustrates this superbly. After you finish &quot;Hatchet&quot;, I highly recommend the follow up book, &quot;The River&quot; as well.
