Brians Hunt- Gary Paulsen

Brians Hunt by Gary Paulsen is the continuation of Hatchet. This book is about the boy, Brian, who is stranded in the Canadian Wilderness and uses only his wits to survive. In this book, he has a bunch of supplies he brought with him, since he wanted to go back. In the beginning, he remembres all the things that happened when he was first stranded in the wilderness. Now, armed with all the things he needs, he plans to do it again. My favorite part was when Brian entered his Canoe and snook up behind a Northern Pike. He was excellent at steering his way as not to spook the fish, so he was gentle when he paddled. After he got the fish, he took it back to camp to cook and eat. Then he settled down and went to sleep in his canoe. The next morning, he saw a moose while strolling along in his canoe. He mentally planned out how it would go. He then thought to himself and said, "I can't kill a moose, its to big, and a regular arrow wouldnt kill it." So he went back to camp and planned out a different way to kill the animal. In the end, Brian was armed with the knowledge of the wilderness, the skills of hunting, and he was an experienced hunter.
