The Call of the Wild Audiobook

" The most important book of my childhood. Very exciting story! "

" I enjoyed White Fang more, but both were fantastic stories. "

" i love these little pocket books. a great couple of stories as well. quintessential London. "

" ehh okay i guess not my thing "

" I read this when I was young, and have memories of loving both of the books. Probably one of my favorite books growing up. "

" A beloved classic. Mine was the hardcover Hamlyn illustrated in color version. "

" This book helps stoke the wildness within any young boy. It's about badass wolves and the spiritual connection to them, to fire, to history, etc. "

" Read this combo of his two classics on our trip to Alaska...made them even more interesting as we headed north. "

" Read this and White Fang back in the 1960's "

" I enjoyed these two books. They are fun reads, but not memorable or life-changing. "

" i could not finish this "

" I'm actually not sure I've read Call of the Wild before now, but it was shorter than I expected. I didn't find much depth, but enjoyed the story nonetheless. White Fang was as heart wrenching as I remembered. "

" I read White Fang (finally). Good book, not gory like a novel written today would be, but it gets the point across of the brutality of the natural world. Something to be learned from it is a deeper appreciation of what civilization really means, something we take for granted. "

" Couldn't put it down/read when i was a kid in the early 80's. "

" Call of the Wild was my preference--it was just the proper length for its message. I really enjoyed the character and the whole atmosphere of the dog-sledding world. White Fang was really good, but it dragged in parts and I wasn't thrilled with it the entire time. "

" Should be read together. Awesome books! "

" found this book to be a great read and kept my attention throughout the whole story. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes adventure and nature. "

" I feel like 3 stars isn't enough but I didn't like it enough to give it 4. It's been a while since I've read a quick easy read that keeps me interested throughout the entire book. London did a great job writing this one. Just maybe need to up the emotion. "

" I read these books back in early high school 9th grade I think. Very good, I love stories with dogs. "

" I love this book. You root for White Fang through the entire book and can't help but be happy he finds his happiness in the end. "

" One of my favorite books. "

" Read it when I was still a little girl back in the swamps of southern Louisiana... it helped to shape my life! "

" The writing style isn't awesome... until you recognize that you are witnessing the world through the eyes of an animal... very cool. "

" I am so glad I picked up this book again. Haven't read it since Jr. High (which is a long time ago). Buck is such a wonderful spirit and in the end leads the life he wants to lead. "

" These are two amazingly written, brutal, beautiful stories. What insights into the mind of an animal. What fabulous scenery! What adventure! They are both love stories of a sort and transport you to the Yukon and everywhere else the story takes us. "

" Read both as a child and liked them, but now it's time to re-read as I don't remember much at all. "

" I liked it when I was a teen. "

" It's a classic, for one, and it is so for a reason. It's real. It's an adventure the rest of us will never experience in real life. To have it at your fingertips is such an honor because of the rarity of the situation. "

" London's "The Call of the Wild" is a beautiful and emotional depiction of the life of a dog born and raised in a loving environment. He is betrayed and has to cope with life in the wild. "

" Really enjoyed reading about Buck and his life. It's good to go back and read some classics especially when your teacher didn't assign them!! "

" A wonderful, quick read. I loved that it was written from the perspective of the dog, and while London clearly has an idealistic view of nature, I enjoyed it thoroughly. In fact, I enjoyed it because he painted nature in such a vibrant, idealistic way. "

" Had to read it for school, don't remember much about it but I thought it was ok. "

" I read this along with my 7th graders in my internship this semester. I'm not sure I really like this type of story, but Jack London was definitely a very good writer, and creative to be able to write from a dog's perspective. "

" Very well written, just not my type of book. "

" This book is wasted on 10 year olds. "

" It was really sad!!! It was hard to get through! "

" It's told from the perspective of a dog! "

" I was really prejudiced, but it turned out to be a fair read. Still not my particular type of book.. but it I didn't feel the urge to put it down. "

" It's told from the perspective of a dog! "

" An honest and brutal portrayal of the North seen the from the eyes of the dog. Jack London paints a wonderful and realistic picture but it is a little too harsh for me. "

" I haven't read this in many years, and it was worth the read! Just awesome. "

" I would not reccomend this book, unless you like dogs ripping peoples throats out! "
