I need to redo book covers more often!<br /><br />Gaby, I haven't read MY SIDE OF THE MOUNTAIN either--although I've met Jean Craighead George and had a long conversation about natural history mural painting with her.<br /><br />Jessica, there's a sequel? What does his plane crash again? That sounds goofy.<br /><br />Hatchet does look like a zombie--it's the one color approach, looks fine in blues and greens, but does funny things in red.<br /><br />Ron, I have read the Hungry City books, they were referred to me by a guy named Ron several years ago...haven't read them to my son though, I bet he'd get a kick out of them.<br /><br />3 sequels? Aww. And here I was praising it for being a standalone. How many times does one kid crash into the wilderness?Nathanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15405813853669674039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7622998981501193158.post-70768252501944905842010-06-04T20:34:27.562-06:002010-06-04T20:34:27.562-06:00I hate to go all librarian on you Jessica, but the...I hate to go all librarian on you Jessica, but there are about 3 sequals to Hatchet, none of which are Dogsong (which is a dandy book, but no Brian).<br /><br />I had no idea that Brian was a manic redhead - good to know.<br /><br />Animal Sidekick = snarky skunk?DaNaehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08433351609725965246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7622998981501193158.post-12578169518502148322010-06-04T16:53:37.058-06:002010-06-04T16:53:37.058-06:00So, in terms of dystopian steampunk, have you read...So, in terms of dystopian steampunk, have you read Phillip Reeve's Hungry City series or his younger series (Larklight, Starcross, Mothstorm)?Ron McCutchannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7622998981501193158.post-8168470688603063712010-06-03T22:27:28.820-06:002010-06-03T22:27:28.820-06:00How come "Hatchet" looks like a zombie? ...How come "Hatchet" looks like a zombie?

By the way, there is at least one sequel to that book. Dogsong?
