In the stories Hatchet, Dragon Wings and Eleven, Brian, Moon Shadow, and Rachel all face life-changing experiences that had direct impact on their lives. In this essay, I will explain how Brian, Moon Shadow, and Rachel faced life-changing situations with quotes from the stories and analyses. Brian faced loneliness and hunger when he was stranded on a deserted island.On page seven Brian states, “I wish you were here, Perpich."
