Chapter 13 Summary

He had finally found a way to get fish just aim below the fish and throw as hard as you can he had had a great feasting day, going to the lake and getting a fish eating it go back get a fish and eat it and so on, he had gotten over the emotional part in the last chapter an had moved on. I think that chapter was very informative and flowing through at the right speed.

Chapter 12 Summary

It was quite an emotional chapter hearing the plane and running as fast as he can getting wood and going to a high place and there the plane must have turned away and the sound was getting fainter until it was almost gone.

Chapter 11 Summary

He was starting to get things together he was going to get some wood for a spear he had found a piece of lake that fish always come into, and tried to get one but they were to quick, he was getting ready to be saved to have a burning limb of a branch at the ready to signal if he thought he heard a plane, it is a really good chapter very descriptive like all the other chapters and gets you into the picture thing you were out there and or what would you do.

A loud noise had awakened him, a noise from wind,
His eyes jumped opened. He looked outside, A
TORNADO. It coming over the lake, a huge water
funnel. The tornado ripping and roaring up the water,
Humungas ripples coming up the lake t0wards him,
But he couldnt do anything, it was to late, he jumped
inside his shelter. Sat at the very back of it listening
to the roaring. He saw his wall move and then a huge roar
and it ripped out the whole wall and the fire and sparks
flew everywhere flying up into the air, he held onto the rock
with all his might and for another ten seconds it was ripping
at him and it finally past, now he was back at square one.

Chapter 10 Summary

He is thinking that the rescuers will be there really quick, but they wont there hundreds of miles to cover in forest. He finds are some eggs that he finds about a dossen or so and he thinks I'll eat one a day but then he thinks they find me before then so he thinks to himself I'll eat them really quick(bad choice). He still has his hopes high because he thinks if he forgets about them they will forget about him so he still has his hopes high.

Chapter 9 Summary

He was getting to see that he had to feed the fire lots and get stocked up on wood, he remembers that fire needs air so when he was getting the fire started he blew on it to try and make it go, but there is more to this little bit than you think he is thinking about his class and his teacher of about how to make fire, it shows that he is getting really lonely and is thinking about his friends ang family.

Chapter 8 Summary

He finally found a way to make fire, rub the hachet against a rock and a huge burst of flames would come flying out. It was a really deep chapter thinking about his father and his mother, his leg was still sore. The chapter created heaps of pictures in your mind, it made you feel you were him that your leg was sore and you were in the forest aswell.

Chapter 5 Summary

At the end of this chapter he is thinking about perpich one of his teachers, that "he is all he has" and "he has to make do with what hes got", it is a really realistic part of the book he needs to do something to make himself survive, you get pictures in your mind and they are really vivid there are great descriptive words about what is happening with his life, it is one of the most important part of the book of making a shelter and finding food.

Chapter 4 Summary

Chapter 3 Summary

It was really exhillirating when the crash happened you could see a clear picture in your mind of what was happening, it was really descriptive, when he hit the water you could imagine if it was actually happening to you. When you read this book you wouldnt be able to wait till the next chapter to read.

Chapter Two Summary

Right at the end of the chapter, it was good he finally got to use the radio but no one answered. Then he thought if he landed in a lake when he ran out of fuel, it would reduce the impact, so he started to get prepared....

Chapter One Summary

I think that was quiet a good chapter, it was really exhillirating when the pilot had a heart attack, it was really rich and descriptive, you can see a clear picture in your mind about what is going on in the book.
