he Call of the Wild was a good book. It was not my favorite book. The Call of the Wild was hard for me to read. I would read the book and I would not remember the small details. This book isn't a bad book but isn't close to the best. The first chapter was not my favorite. The first chapter had some good parts to it. I enjoyed the great detail of the book right from the start. I liked the parts of Buck living in a big nice home in Santa Clara Valley. I did not like the parts of the book
things up, i just wanted to say my overall opinion of Call of the Wild. It was that it was decent but i it didn’t have the feelings, and action and descriptive details that i look for in a book.

I will now tell my favorite and least favorite parts in Call of the Wild. I mainly enjoyed chapter 7, because it was something

At last Buck’s killing a bull moose assures him that it is with the wild he belongs: There is a patience of the wild-dogged, tireless,persistent as life itself -
I liked Call of the Wild because it was an action packed book. The setting of this book is Alaska in 1897. The setting impacts the book because it tells the season of the year in Alaska. The book talks about the seasons and in the end of chapter one we are told that Buck sees and feels snow for the first time. When Buck was living at Judge Miller’s Place he was never yelled at, beaten, or whipped but when the man in the red sweater bought Buck he changed that. Also, if Buck hadn’t been taken by

Throughout Jack London's The Call of the Wild there is a lot of human characteristics given to animals. As London continues the story, he explains the dogs introduced as if they were humans. In this case Buck, the main character is shown in a way as if he is one of us. London shows his reasoning for the use of anthropomorphism throughout the story using Buck's actions and feelings. Every story has a main character and unlike many this one is a dog named Buck. As explained in the story, Buck is a

Homer Winslow’s painting “Palm Tree: Nassau” relates in many ways to the novel The Call of the Wild. When observing this painting, the first thing that I noticed was the blowing palm trees. Even though the wind is harsh on the leaves, the tree still stands strong and tall. This reminded me of Buck, the main character of the book. Buck was a strong and diligent dog who desired to be the dominant male of the sled group. While trying to reach the alpha male position, he struggled due to the resistance
