Call Of The Wild Setting

It still happens in today’s society and I think it’s important for 8th graders to become aware of what it is and what it can cause. I think that the story does a good job of showing how dogs will be loyal to you if you treat them right. In a summary of the story, it’s explained how a man named Thorton shows Buck mercy and helps him. It also writes how later in the story, Buck will save Thorton from drowning. I think that reading this story will help children understand how to not treat animals and teach them that treating them right can give you loyal pets. I also believe that the story should be in the curriculum because if no one teaches kids about animal abuse and things that really happen, we shouldn’t be expected to know about it, but we are, and we should be informed on the things going on in the real world. I think that the entire story teaches us about very real things that we should be aware of. People may say that kids shouldn’t be reading books like The Call of the Wild that have events that include animal abuse and illegal things, but kids can’t always be shielded from the real world. I think that people who vote to have books banned don’t understand the power of literature and all that it can teach young

We may not be able to understand what they are saying or what they are thinking, but as London explains throughout his novella, one dog in particular has such high aspirations for himself that he will not quit for anything and his name is Buck.
