Survival stories By:Ava and Mike
Isn’t it a mystery how people can survive in harsh environments?

Diary of the Wimpy kid doesn’t look so interesting now does it! First and foremost, Island of the Blue Dolphins is about a girl surviving on an island after her tribe left her and her brother behind and her brother was killed by a wild dog soon then. Karana is a 12 year old girl who had to survive with her 6 year old brother on an island. Wow I would not want to be stuck in that position.

Guts was written by Gary Paulsen who also wrote Hatchet. What Guts is mainly about is the pilot that dies from a heart attack in Hatchet.

When Gary came to write Hatchet and the scene where the pilot is dying, he remembered this man of all the men he saw dead from heart attacks and car wrecks and farm accidents. Gary remembered him and his eyes and he put him in the plane next to Brian because he was, above all things, real, and he wanted the book to be real. But he did not sleep well that night when he wrote him into the book and I will not sleep well tonight thinking of his eyes. Thanks alot
