The Hatchet Theme

Satisfactory Essays

First, I think this book is a science book. Because in book cover , there is a hatchet (also in that time, I do not know what hathet is.) and some realistic picture of forest. So I think ‘ Why science book have newbery? I think only story book can have it.’ But I was wrong. It is a story book. Really interesting book. Main character Brian have a plane accident on his way to visit his father (His mother and father was divorce). He fall and he realize he was in Canadian wilderness. He only have a hatchet his mother gave him as present and a tattered windbreaker. He made his camp, and he gather food and hunt. He ate berries, turtle eggs. He made bow, arrow and spear with hatchet and hunt animals with them. He got fire by spark of hatchet.
