The River by Gary Paulsen

Can you imagine your friend being put in a coma? The main character in this book is Brian Robeson. Brian is very brave for going back up to Canada and reliving his two month long nightmare in the woods. It is Brian's responsibility to take his friend who is in a coma down the raging Canadian river to safety. Can he do it in time before his friend dies? Brian is a determined person and shows this in a couple of ways. One way he shows it is by going back into the woods and teaching others how to survive. Another way he shows determination is making sure that he gets his friend to safety.I think this is a great book because it keeps you on the edge of your seat because the action is changing every minute. You want to read this book AFTER you read Hatchet. If Hatchet excited you, then this will be a good book for you.
