Dogsong Audiobook (Unabridged)

" Wonderful insight into the world of a modern Inuit adolescent. Bravo! "

" I enjoyed this book and plan to recommend it to my sons who are fans of Hatchet. I could not help but compare this book to Julie of the Wolves, which I loved as a young adult. Dogsong is the story of a young native american, Eskimo boy who finds himself dissillusioned with the modern ways that he see encroaching on the old traditions. This boy, Russell decides to start out on his own to find the answers. With the help of an old blind man, OOgruk, Russel finds himself on a quest to find the answers he seeks. He and his sled dog team face many adventures and obstacles as they search and fight for survival and thier answers. "

" this was a great story "

" I enjoyed reading this book. Of course it had the parts about hating the white people, but lets not get into that. I think it had a good storyline, good charecters, and a great ending. Paulse is one of my favorite authors. "

" This book was ok but it was kinda weird. it's about a eskimo who goes and lives off the land. yeah it's weird. "

" It was pretty interesting. "

" This one was ok, though I don't think it should be as popular as it is. I liked Hatchet more, though this one was ok. "

" Listened to the book on tape and it did not hold my attention like the great Hatchet. "

" Really liked the sense the book brought, of looking for your own spirituality. In search of your own meaning of life, in search of your own truth. "

" it was okay i don't think its my faorite from him i'd rather read transal saga or hachet "

" Great story. You should read it. "

" Great Childhood Book "

" I liked this book a lot! "

" This is one of the best kinda realistic books ever. "

" I'm not big on the wilderness survival, dog team stories. It's well written, but I had a hard time getting into it. "

" I liked the poetic language and style throughout the book. Paulsen is a master of repetition for effect. But still, Russel's journey took a little too long... "

" This was a fast read and intriguing. I pulled it from my 7th grade books and I think it is a good level for that age. "

" Dogsong is about a guy named Russel Suskitt escaping his village with a dog team to try and find himself. He travels all over until he rescues a pregnant Eskimo and then runs into a life threatning problem. "

" I didn't really like this book to much. I had to read it for school in 7th grade, that could be why I didn't like it. "

" An eskimo boy living in today's world, goes back to living & thinking of the "old " way using an elder eskimo's dog sled team. Good "

" it was a pretty good book it was just a little bit boring. "

" Found this with my stash of elementary school books. Will see if I can dig up Hatchet and others. "

" Pure poetry in the native inuit tradition. A beautiful story that was thrilling and passionate at the same time. This book solidified that Paulsen is an incredible writer and has such an intimacy with his craft. "

" A very good book. This is about this Eskimo finding his song. But only after a long journey of adventure may he find his song. This book is mostly about finding your inner self. "

" The story wasn't the most interesting i've ever read, but the writing is great. Sometimes it reads a lot like a poem, a really beautiful poem, sometimes even like a song, the author used tons of metaphors and similes, I can see why this book has a newberry honor medal. "
