From : stanforda
I chose this book because I believe that it was very interesting. Also, if anyone was in this kind of trouble I think they would do just fine with the advice and action of the book. My favorite part in the book was when the boy Brian was being eaten alive by the poisonous mosquitos. He only had a torn wind-breaker to help protect him from the thousands of swarming mosquitos. The setting and characters are described in a very realistic manner. My attention was caught by the unbelieveable details, description, and action. The action was very easy to move along with because I understood the book very well. The words in this book are easy to read and understand. I think the cover of the book is very plain but I can quickly get a picture in my imagination. The part that really suprised me was when the pilots eyes started rolling back into his head. Nothing changed when I saw that particular action. This story happens to take place in the wilderness of Canada. If the story didn't take place where it did the story would change drastically. All the surroundings and action that was around him would have changed. No, I think this book was good enough for me and I'll settle with the understanding I had. If I had to tell my bestfriend abotu this book I would tell her that it is a wonderful novel and she would enjoy it very much if she took the time to read it.
