The Call of the Wild by Jack London
The Call of the Wild by Jack London is about a dog
named Buck who was born and raised in the typical life of a dog. He was raised
by a normal family and in a normal neighborhood. One day, he was kidnapped
overnight and was sold to dogsled owners in Canada. Once there, he was trained
to be a leader of the pack and eventually overtook the position from the
current leader. Over the course of the story, he was bought and sold to
different dogsled owners, but eventually found a home he could rest in for the
remainder of his life.
I read this book when I was in 8th grade
for a project I had to do. So, the main reason I chose this book was because of
how short it was. I just wanted to read the book and get the project over with,
but I ended up really enjoying the book. This is the book that really opened my
eyes up to reading more. Ever since I read that book, I have been reading more
and more. I have begun reading not only for school projects, but also on my own
time. I really enjoyed the style Jack London uses in his writing and I have
read several other book written by him.
