Lost Hope-Hatchet-By:Gary Paulsen

(Chapters 13-14)

What would you do if you were Brian?

   After waiting for weeks,an airplane finally comes to rescue Brian,but after thinking that he wasnt there,the plane turns back.Brian eventually loses hope and wants to kill himself.What would I do if I were Brian?
   If I were Brian,I would have tried different emergency techniques other than a signaling fire.For example,I wouldv'e used ground to air making signals.I wouldv'e spelled,HELP  in really big letters on the ground by using twigs or maybe stomping in the snow.I would also try to use emergency flares so that the pilots would see me in the night.
   Also,I would try to use the religious belief by praying.Many people in the world pray when times are tough for them and they want hope to get them through cartain situations.In Brian's situation,I think that it would be important to pray,so that God or whoever he is praying to gives him hope to get through his survival situation.
