Making Meanings In the novel Hatchet, by gary paulsen the main character Brian takes a gift from his mother because he felt bad that he wasnt talking to her the whole ride to the airport. Eventhough he didnt want to take the hatchet, h e thinks the hatchet looks geeky but he takes it because he loves her. His mom got it for him on the trip. If i were Brian I would take the hatchet because i would feel bad if I didnt take the hatchet because my mom bought it with hard earned cash and put alot of thought into it. 2.Consider this... Brian was sitting in a bushplane roaring seven thousand feet above the northern wilderness with a pilot who had suffered a major heart attack and who was either dead or in something close to a coma. ASSI! In the novel Hatchet ,by gary paulsen The main charactor Brian finds himself seven thousand feet above northern wilderness with a pilot who has suffered a heart attack and is unconious because of the situation brian had to make some big desitoins. Brian's reaction to the situation made him freeze with fear. For example, Brian couldnt move a muscle to save his life. The plane needed a pilot and he didnt know how to fly the machine. I wouldnt freeze up like brian I would check his pulse and switch seats with him to try and fly the plane. I wouldnt try to help the pilot I dont know CPR but I would try to fly the plane to a clean and crash land the bush plane. MLK day: On MLK day I did the daily chores around the house such as feed our cats, wash the dishes, take the trash out and do the laundry. I think it is important to help on MLK day because it shows our respect for MLK. media type="custom" key="8154478" width="110" height="110" Chapter 8 · Brian hears something in his cave · Kicks the thing · And threw his hatchet and sees sparks · It’s a porcupine and it slapped needles in his leg · He ripped them out · He started crying · He thought that feeling sorry about himself would do nothing · He had a dream · he saw his father · his father said mmmmm · Then in his dream he saw terry light a fire · He crushed berries · drank the berry juice · He picked up the hatchet · saw a chip in it where he had thrown it   · He realized that his hatchet had made sparks · Hew knew he could make a fire
