BRIAN'S WINTER by Gary Paulsen


  Brian Robeson’s been trapped in the northern Canadian wilderness and facing the most difficult challenge of all.  Winter. When he finds out that small breakable arrows won’t work.  He took a couple days making war arrows.  Helping him not waste arrows, after a bear attacked.  Taking a couple days preparing for the harsh winter (making a rain/snow proof shelter and making snowshoes).  Using his intelligence, he knows how to mark his territory (from the wolves) so no predators will attack him.  At the end of the book he finds a pack of Cree trappers which help him return to home 
 
 The scariest part was when the bear attacks his shelter.  I was so scared I didn’t even want to stop, it was so scary. He tries to kick it but it just makes it angrier and ends up in cuts and scratches.
I would recommend this book to boys and girls who like survival and a bit disturbing books. 

 RATING: *****
