About the characters •Brian •Pilot • 13 years old • Parents are divorced • He is abandoned in a forest after his plane crashes. • Has a heart attack while flying the plane that is taking Brian to see his father.
My favorite part... iswhen Brian gets hit by a tornado, but does not give up. This is my favorite part because it shows that Brian is determined to survive in the wilderness of Canada.
