The First 9

Over the week I have read 9 chapters of White Fang, and all nine chapters have been thrilling.
In the beginning, we have a starving wolf pack and and two men with there dog pack who have to survive from them. The dogs are picked of one by one. Bill, one of the two people decided he could not take the dog slaughter going on and attacked the wolves, which led no only to his death, but other dogs death also. Due to those deaths, Henry is forced into a cave with the safety of a fire,closing of the entrance. Some time passes and another sled pack finds and saves him.

Here the story splits, and we now focus just on wolves for a while. Hunts go well and soon the wolf pack splits up with their. Some fights and deaths do occur in the fight over mates. We skip ahead and now the cubs are born. White fang has no outside knowledge right now. He is not allowed to go outside.His 4 brothers and sisters die but he lives. His father is killed by a lynx protecting her own cubs. And what happens to White Fang is now to find out.

White Fang

 The book I have chosen to read is White Fang by Jack London. I decided to read this book from a recommendation I had received from a friend in 8th grade. It also had an interesting blurb. Along with those, I also found the first few pages gripping, and so I chose it out of the bookstore. It also had a cool cover.
