This central idea found in the first chapter of Hatchet is the theme of survival and resilience. Brian, the main character, is forced to rely on his own instincts and abilities to survive after a plane crash leaves him stranded in the Canadian wilderness.

In the chapter I am currently reading, Brian demonstrates a determination to survive by building a shelter and finding ways to procure food and water. Despite facing numerous obstacles, such as battling mosquitoes and finding it difficult to start a fire, Brian perseveres and refuses to give up.

This chapter reinforces the central idea of survival and resilience as Brian learns to adapt to his new environment and overcome the challenges he faces. It highlights his inner strength and resourcefulness as he navigates his way through the wilderness in order to stay alive. Brian's character development in this chapter further emphasizes the importance of resilience in the face of adversity.
