The Call of the Wild - Jack London

A young dog named Buck is living a perfect life in his home. There is plenty of room to run on the large property, and there are two boys to play with. However, Buck's life is turned upside down when one of the workers sells Buck for a profit. The people who bought Buck plan on breaking him in to be a sled dog for those who are searching for gold in the north. Buck was picked for his mass and ability to pull heavy things. Knowing he would bring a great profit, he is sold around from owner to owner. Buck will have to face the gruesome world of sled dogs as he finds the courage to answer the call of the wild.

I loved this book! It is not just some cliche dog book. It is beautifully written and shows how Buck finds his inner calling. I can't even find the words to describe this book! The only thing I can say is that I have read this book close to ten times and it never gets old! You will just have to read it for yourself to completely understand how amazing it is.

This book is amazing for teens and adults alike. However, I wouldn't recommend this book to young kids because there is a large array of vocabulary that would be above their knowledge. But, from the context of the sentence, you can usually figure out what it means. I would STRONGLY recommend this book.

This book's rating 10/10
