The Call of The wild was my favorite reading assignment because it had a lot of story in it and we took a lot of time to read it. I also like it because we got to watch the movie and see how different the book is from the movie was. The Call of The Wild is a novella which is a short ,but good story with a plot, setting,conflict,climax, and a really good end.
The reason the call of the wild is better than all of the other reading assignments is because it was longer and we took a few weeks to read it so we got to read it a couple of times so it sort of stuck with me and it was a good book. Also if you are like me you would of had to read it like three times. Sense I had to read it like three times it sort of was stuck in my brain and the first

Each character has a different family background and personality. Every character also had a different experience in the wilderness and way they documented it. Lastly, McCandless, Rosellini, and Ruess all had different ways they died.
The book and the movie of The Call of the Wild are both similar yet different. Like any movie based on a book, the movie of The Call of the Wild presents different characters and events than the book so it can be unique and enjoyable. In this essay, I’ll like to compare and contrast the book and the movie.
The Call of the Wild, on the surface, is a story about Buck, a four- year old dog that is part Shepherd and part St. Bernard. More importantly, it is a naturalistic tale about the survival of the fittest in nature. Throughout the novel, Buck proves that he is fit and can endure the law of the club, the law of the fang, and the laws of nature.
Buck lives in Judges Millers estate at the beginning of both the book and the movie. He is then kidnapped by Manuel, the gardener. He is sold to dog salesmen heading to Alaska. He is disciplined by the Law of Club and Fang. The man in the red sweater takes Buck out of the cage and repeatedly beats him. Buck continues to try to attack until he is to week to fight. He then learns the law of Club and Fang.
The Call of the Wild, by Jack London, is a classic piece of American literature. The novel follows the life of a dog named Buck as his world changes and in turn forces him to become an entirely new dog. Cruel circumstances require Buck to lose his carefree attitude and somewhat peaceful outlook on life. Love then enters his life and causes him to see life through new eyes. In the end, however, he must choose between the master he loves or the wildness he belongs in.
Does living a life in the wilderness bring betterment to people’s lives? According to Christopher McCandless and Henry Thoreau, it really did. In the book, Into The Wild, by Jon Krakauer, the author tells the story of young Christopher J. McCandless who seemingly decides one day to give away his savings to charity, pack up his car, and leave his home and family for a life of wandering and adventure. His story ends with his eventual death in the Alaskan Yukon, but Krakauer goes into what may have caused him to do such a thing and how those who’s lives the young man touched felt about his death. Multiple parallels can be seen between McCandless and author Henry Thoreau. Among McCandless’ possessions found with his body in August of 1992, was
There are a few reasons why I recommend reading the classic, “The Call Of The Wild” by Jack London. There are very exhilarating action scenes throughout the book. The suspense is well placed and makes you wanting more and more. The story is told through the eyes of a dog, which gives an intriguing perspective to the storyline. These reasons and a few others give this book a lively feel.
“A hero is somebody who voluntarily walks into the unknown” Tom Hanks. The non-fiction book “Into the wild” by Jon Krakauer and the novel-based movie directed by Sean Penn, are both about a young man from a well-to-do family who hitchhiked his way to Alaska. He abandoned this life to live a simple one with nature but four months later his decomposed body was discovered in an old bus. Krakauer wrote about the events that led up to that point in his novel. Although they share many similarities, the movie was more romanticized than the novel. Evidence of that was found Chris`childhood, Ronald Franz after Chris`death, the development of Tracy's character and Carine`s narration in the movie.
“ The Call Of The Wild “ have many similarities and few differences. Both the movie and book have similarities. They do have little differences. They have many parts that are alike and a few parts not alike. They have similarities and differences.
Chris McCandless and Buck serve as examples of the archetype of the wild through their experiences of leaving where they feel most comfortable and answering the call of the wild. They show that each experience is inimitable because the wild is unique to every individual. For Buck, the wild is a place outside of civilization and his dependence on man, where the external threats of nature exist and he must prove himself as a true animal with instincts for survival. In McCandless' case, the place outside of civilization is actually an escape from his fears because the wild for him is in relationships, where the threat of intimacy exists and he must learn to trust others for happiness. This is because for each of us, the wild is what we
The book I selected to read during this semester is the literary classic The Call of the Wild, a 1903 novel by award-winning author Jack London. I chose to read this story because it is a classic novel and the heroic tone of the novel appealed to me. The novel tells of an initially pampered dog, Buck, and the progression of his tendency to revert to the inner instincts of fierce violence and extreme competition instilled in him. In the process, Buck goes through several different masters before finally landing with the right one. The Call of the Wild is made interesting by the literary devices used in the novel, the simple and robust tone used by London, and the process that the protagonist Buck undergoes in reverting back to his
