Call of the Wild book review...

Harsh, Brutal, and Strong, Jack London's Call of the Wild, captured my interest in his tale of Buck and the harsh Alaskan sled dog life.



In this book, a dog named Buck will have to test his strength and courage. This book teaches you that you can survive tough conditions, even when sometimes you want to lie down and quit. The book is saying that when there is no hope you still have to be strong.



Buck is the main character and at the beginning of the book he is not sure what is going on. He does not really know how to adjust to this weird climate and conditions. Along the way he finds himself and who he really is as a dog.



Buck is an ordinary dog until one day when his master's gardener traded him to some strange men. These men were looking for gold and they needed Buck to be a sled dog. Buck was once a house dog, but now he has to adjust to the harsh Alaskan climate and become a tough sled dog. He has to gain his new senses and fight for his survival. Along the way, he will encounter wolves, crazy men that beat him, and even some vicious dogs that try to kill him.



I recommend this book to anyone who likes an adventure. This book is interesting and has a good moral.
