Hatchet Survival Kit

• By Caitlin McClarence

Hatchet

• The first item I would choose is a hatchet. I
  chose the hatchet because it is a tool for
  hunting, safety, and fire. In the novel Hatchet
  the main character Brian used his hatchet to make
  weapons such as a bow and arrow. Thats why I
  chose the hatchet as my first item.

3
Water

• My second item would be water. I chose water as
  my second item because it would prevent me from
  drinking ocean and lake water. In the novel
  Brian was so thirsty he drank lake water. Thats
  a time he could have used a bottle of water.
  Water would be a good thing to have.

4
Food

• I chose food as my third item because I wont
  starve. In the novel Brian gets really hungry it
  would be good to have a hamburger . I think food
  is important on an island. Thats why I chose
  food.

5
First Aid Kit

• I chose a first aid kit because if I got hurt I
  could fix myself. When Brian got shot with quills
  by a porcupine a first aid kit would be helpful.
  A first aid kit could help anyone whenever they
  got hurt. Thats why I chose the first aid kit as
  my fourth item.

6
Matches

• I chose matches as my fifth item because it
  would give me fire. Animals are also naturally
  afraid of fire. So that would protect you from
  bears, porcupines, and raccoons. Matches would
  be a great thing to have in a survival kit.

7
Gun

• My sixth survival kit item is a gun. I chose the
  gun because it is a tool for hunting. When
  picking raspberries a bear came up to Brian . The
  gun could have helped Brian get food bear meat.
  Bear meat would be like a feast! Thats why I
  chose a gun.

8
Tent

• I chose a tent as my seventh item because it
  would give me shelter. Shelter is important
  because it protects people from bugs. For example
  when Brian was attacked by mosquitoes he could
  have used a tent. Thats why I chose a tent.

9
Emergency Transmitter

• I chose the emergency transmitter as my last
  item because I could get help. When Brian crashed
  and got on land he could have radioed for help.
  The emergency transmitter would be a great item
  in a survival kit.
