I have started reading a book named "Hatchet" by Gary Paulsen and it is about a 13 year old boy named Brian Robeson and he was on a small air plain and then he remember about his parents divorcing. That was about a month ago and he is heading towards his dads place over the summer to cut down some trees because his dad is a mechanical engineer for oil drills and whatnot. His mom gave him a hatchet and before he left so that he could cut down some trees. The pilot is telling Brian that he is feeling some pain in his shoulder. The bad thing is that it results into a hert attack as the pain increases. Brain is in shock and goes to find the radio. Right before he could take in the information he was given the radio goes out and the engine dies. The nose of the plane is pointing straight down and there is nothing he could do. He sees a lake in the distance and thinks he has a chance to make. He makes it and swims towards the shore and faints. That is where his adventure begins.
Some thing that is noticed is that he kept bringing up the "Secret", about when his parents divorced. That happened about a month ago and you would think that he is over it but he isn't. Most people that I know that has parents that are divorced got over it in about 2 weeks. On the plane ride he kept that in his mind until of course the pilot had a heart attack. I wonder if later on in the book he will keep on bringing it up.
