Hatchet by Gary PaulsenMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
Kind of Island of the Blue Dolphin for a boy stranded in Canadian wildness for two months instead of a girl stranded on a Pacific Island for 18 years. The focus was on his survival with the occasional flashback to his parents' drama back home. I think it's a fun book for kids- though scary in some parts. Doesn't hold up well for adults.
