Novel Study: Hatchet, Gary Paulsen

On lined paper and in your best cursive writing, answer the following questions before we begin reading the novel:

·       Examine the book cover.  Where do you think the story might take place?  What role do you think the hatchet might play in the story?  How would categorize the book genre or type?

·       Have you ever travelled to a wooded area? Describe the location, your experience and your level of enjoyment.

·       Have you ever heard or seen a realistic story of survival?  Briefly describe it and your opinion about it.


·       What kind of person do you think is able to survive in a dangerous situation?
