Hi Mrs. F I think that this book is like "hatchet". I disagree with Ryan when he said " they don't know how to talk " NO NO NO THEY DIDN'T TALK BECAUSE MATT NEVER REALLY HAD BIG CONVERSATIONS WITH HIS FATHER. MATT WAS ALL ALONE IN THE FOREST AND THEN HE COULDN'T TALK TO ANYONE! who agrees with me come on. Matt was exaggerating why do family gets here I will be 13" . Thank You for your time goodnight. PEACE OUT.
