ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

Hatchet by Gary Paulsen tells the story of Brian Robeson, a thirteen-year-old boy, who becomes stranded in the Canadian wilderness after a plane crash. The novel follows his struggle for survival as he learns to cope with the harsh environment, find food, build shelter, and create tools. Brian must also learn to confront his internal struggles, such as his parents’ divorce and the secret he holds, which contributes to his feelings of isolation. The story explores themes of self-reliance, resilience, and transformation as Brian adapts to his new reality and discovers his own inner strength.
