Hatchet tells a tale about our main character brian. Brian is flying in a plane to go visit his father because his parents divorced, however during the flight the pilot has a heart attack and dies. During the flight, the pilot tries to teach brian how to fly a bit before he dies. But as the plane goes down, brian made a life saving move and took control of the plane’s descent. After the plane crashes brian is left alone in the wilderness with only the hatchet his mother gave him as a present. Throughout the story we can see deep into brian's emotions and character development. We also get to see the ways he survives and what he has to do to stay alive.
