Download Hatchet Audiobook

" I listen to this book for about 15 minutes with my 11 year old son every night before bed. He was so into it that he wanted to keep listening every night. "

" The Hatchet is a heart-pounding story about a young boy who survives a plane crash and is marooned in the wilderness with only a hatchet. Its an unlikely scenario, but my two teen boys liked the book, and I did, too. It was the perfect book for a 3-hour trip. The narrator does a good job, too. "

" I really felt connected to Brian. This story has been woven in a wonderful way and I really enjoyed how Gary Paulson tells the story. The woods have always been significant in my life and I feel connected to Brian in that way! "

" I love Peter Coyote as narrator! Great book! Will check out Winter at some point. "

" Loved his book. I felt really connected to the main character, and the story-telling is excellent. "

" I thought that Hatchet was okay. Let's put it this way, it was not my favorite book. I am not really a wilderness type person. For some reason I could never get into it. I found that Hatchet dragged. I felt like it kept repeating itself. I liked it towards the end. My favorite part was when he was rescued. "

" this is so cool "

" I gave this book 4 stars because it was a good book overall. It was sad when the plane crashed down because he could have died. He is very lucky that his fathergave him a hatchet because if he didn't I dont think he would ahve made it living out there in the wilderness by him self. I know I would not have made it by myself out in the wilderness. "

" Awesome book! This book shows how a kid can dig deep and do what has to be done to survive if need be. "

" My favorite book from when I was younger, still read it every once in a while. An easy read about a boy who crash lands in the Canadian wilderness with only a hatchet. It's a story of how he survives and how he comes to terms with his parents divorce. "

" This is a great book I read last weekend while my son was reading it for school and had it at the house . I had heard good things about it and remembered my older son had enjoyed it also. I was impressed the author tried all the things Brian did while in the wilderness. "

" Interesting storyline, surprised it's rated so highly...it's a bit bland. "

" I thought this was a great (and for an adult quick) read that most middle school boys would enjoy. "

" It was a good book for a low reading level though "

" Survivor stories are not usually my thing, but I appreciated the inter-weaving of Brian's obvious maturity through the course of his struggle. I could see boys really liking this read - especially the disgusting parts. "

" Very very good. I give it five stars. "

" What teachers don't understand is that even if a book has a medal, DOESN'T MEAN IT'S INTERESTING. I absolutely love reading and I read daily, but this was so boring and predictable!!! I wish we could pick our own books to read for school. "

" A quick read. Believable. Looking forward to reading Brian's Winter "

" This was a quick read for me. Compelling story, beautiful descriptions of the Canadian landscape and just-right depictions of the character's emotions. "

" This was probably my absolute favorite book growing up. "

" Just started reading this with the boys before bedtime. Was very excited to share this with them. It was on a must-read list for boys. It's about survival and so far right up Andrew's reading alley :0) "

" I read this book for an assignment in 6th grade and recently we listened to it as a family. It's a great story of survival and perseverance. "

" Hatchet is a endless classic ,i love reading this book. I like how he was a city boy knowing nothing becoming a surveyor knowing everything. The only thing he had with him the whole time was the hatchet, that is how he made it though the whole thing. I also like when he fights with the moose. "

" Good read! There is not much for plot but it is a good story. "

" Slow start, and I had to get used to Paulsen's style (which got on my nerves at first) but ultimately a good story. "

" I really related to brian on some things like his parrents getting divorced and being lost in a strange place where noone could help me so i give this book two thumbs up! "

" it is a good adventure book "

" This book was ok but could have been better. "

" This depressing hunting book called 'Hatchet' "
