Hatchet
Thirteen-year-old Brian Robeson is grappling with the emotional fallout from his parents’ divorce, particularly the secret of his mother’s infidelity. As he travels by single-engine plane to meet his father, tragedy strikes when the plane crashes, leaving him as the sole survivor in the harsh Canadian wilderness. Armed only with his clothing, a tattered windbreaker, and a hatchet given to him by his mother, Brian initially succumbs to despair.
However, as time passes, he gradually learns vital survival skills. He teaches himself how to build a shelter, hunt, fish, and forage for food, and even manages to endure a tornado that destroys his campsite. After fifty-four days in the wild, Brian is finally rescued, coming out of the experience not only alive but also transformed. He returns with newfound patience, maturity, and a deeper understanding of himself and his parents.
