The River by Gary Paulsen Book Summary

The government sends Brian back to the Canadian wilderness in this beloved follow-up to the award-winning classic Hatchet from three-time Newbery Honor-winning author Gary Paulsen!
 
Two years after Brian Robeson survived fifty-four days alone in the Canadian wilderness, the government wants him to head back so they can learn what he did to stay alive. This time Derek Holtzer, a government psychologist, will accompany him. But a freak storm leaves Derek unconscious. Brian's only hope is to transport Derek a hundred miles down the river to a trading post. He's survived with only a hatchet before--now can Brian build a raft and navigate an unknown river?
 
For the first time it's not only Brian's survival that's at stake. . .

The River. This was a very good book very exciting. I did this book for school and I find that it was easy to remember for a test. It is about a 6 grade level book. I would greatly recommend this book to 4th, 5th, and 6th graders, and if you haven't read Hatchet (you need to read that to read this book). I greatly recommend Brian's Return, Brains Winter and Woods Runner.

the river. this book is extremely good. i loved it.

READ B4 BUY!. Please know that this is the main sequel to the book Hatchet, I strongly suggest reading Hatchet before The River. Overall a great book and a great ending to hatchet.

Laminator2357. If you want to read this read hatchet first. It's the first book in the series. THIS BOOK ROCKS

Gary Paulson. Gary Paulson is one of the best writers ever.

Worth it. Even though I didn't buy it I read it for a book report from the school library and I hate reading and I couldn't stop reading this book BUT if you are going to buy this one buy Hatchet first which is the first book in the series and is also another book I could not stop reading. Gary Paulson is now my fav author. Good job Gary.

The river. A story about hope, will, And trust.
