It is amazing how a plane crash can change your whole life.  Hi, my name is Brian.  I was involved in a plane crash.  Now winter is coming, and I have to make preparations before winter arrives.  I have to find a warm shelter, food, and warmer clothes.  Can I survive the cold winter or will I freeze to death?

I like this part in the book. It is when Brian was going to find out what the the footprints were leading to. He found out that they were tied up to a tree crying. I liked that part because it caught my interest because I was thinking about what was going to happen next.

I think this book didn’t jump from scene to scene. I liked that because it seemed like it was organized.

At the end Brian found out that the footprints were leading to; old man’s house, but they never told who the man was.

I just had to see what was on the next page because it had very good events.

It had an interesting introduction because it got me interested in reading this book after the first couple of sentences. [Shawn]

I pretty much liked the description, but it sort of grossed you out, like the buffalo eating the deer.

The book was a real page-turner. The events were so exciting that you can’t stop reading.

The book was well organized. It was organized into chapters to keep the events from scattering around.

The book has lots of good events. This is what I like about the book, like the part when the bear chased Brian. It was exciting that you can’t stop reading.

The ending was like all endings of survival books. This is what I don’t like about the book. [Talha]
