Never Give Up In A Plane Crash

I was not really into reading at the time, but I remember that my teacher made us read for at least fifteen minutes at the beginning of every class. If we did not have a book there were many books from her library to choose from. I believe this was one of the first books that I read in her class, and think I chose this book in particular because it stood out. I mean the title itself already piqued my interest. I honestly did not think that I was going to enjoy it as much as I did, It was such a bizarre read with all the strange events and abnormal characters. And in a weird way, the strangeness of the story was what I really liked. I do not think I would have liked it as much if it was not for that. It was one of the first chapter books that I did not have to force myself to finish. This was also one of the first books I read that really got me into loving to read. I just loved getting lost in another world and I wanted to keep reading books that did that for me.

There were a few points in this book that taught me about life and how crazy it can be sometimes. The photographer named Fulgencio was very afraid of hitch hiking to Mexico City with a stranger, especially with all of us expensive equipment. On the ride, Fulgencio is so paranoid that the guy is going to kill him, he grabs a machete out of the back of the truck. In doing so he gets kicked out of the car and loses all of his photography equipment anyways. This taught me that we need to trust each other more, Just because there are a few crazy people in the world, we shouldn't let them give us all a bad name. I mean, the guy picked Fulgencio up when he was in desperate need of a car, and gives him a ride. He should have been thankful, not picked up a machete and threaten the guy. Another thing this book taught me was that just because your sister doesn't want your kid anymore because she

In the book I can connect to some of the things in it. In life people have happy things happen and negative things happen. “Life throws too much crap at us as it is, so why hold onto something

The theme of the book is although times can be difficult you have to continue and push forward and patience will have good results.

The social problems in Your Blues Aint Like Mine was un bearable to read at times, some characters suffer because unfortunate circumstances into which they created circumstances that was not good for the situation at that current time.

He has to learn how to survive in the wilderness to be able to reunite with his family again. This book is about survival skills, adaptation, resourcefulness, and quick thinking. “None of that used to be in Brian and now it was a part of him, a changed part of him, a grown part of him, and the two things, his mind and his body, had come together as well, had made a connection with each other that he didn’t quite understand”,(ch. 11,pg.100). A fews days into isolation, Brian notices a change in himself, he perceives the world different and it contributes to his survival. The common theme is initiation to manhood. Initiation to manhood is connected to the article because the boys in the DMC learn to do things they didn’t dp before. This is revealed by the author when he includes that Dr.Teng Smith said,” These men are teaching them how to be men”,(para.4). This is easier to conclude in the article than in the book. Initiation to manhood is in relation to the book “Hatchet” because Brian Robeson, the main character, learned to be a man by surviving in the wilderness. He has gone through things no other “man” has gone through. This is revealed by the author when Brian learns to catch fish without

The tragedies shouldn’t be the main focus of the novel, due to the fact, focusing on the on the horrific parts of the story only will show that they haven’t learned the true meaning behind Khaled Hosseini’s, The Kite Runner.

Many can relate to the characters and the morals to the story. What's most felt is guilt and remorse, and the journey to redemption.

Santiago sets out on his journey to find his treasure, but learns valuable lessons along the way. For example, listen to your heart, and it will never mislead you. Another, follow your dreams and you can achieve anything.

I truly enjoyed this book, and got through it easily.

To survive a plane crash or a shipwreck it would take miracle . People in situations like these, have survived the terrible occurrence that happen to them by just sticking together. I probably don't know what it take because personally this will probably never happen to me ,but if it did then i would put to use the skills Bear Grylls tought me on tv . I would help my loved ones first then other people. I believe probably helping other would lower my chances at living because others would compete for food and we would probably end up dying.

The theme of the story is to not give up and keep pushing forward. I think this is the theme because Brian wanted to quit sometimes but he knew he couldn't. One example was when Brian was injured from the plane crash. Brian was in so much pain he just wanted to die but he kept thinking positive and knew had to get up and find a way to survive.

Brian survived 54 days stranded in the woods and because he didn't quit and he persevered
