When he and Kiche are taken in by an Indian tribe, White Fang begins a journey from Wild to Domesticated that is long, arduous, and painful.

I received a free copy of this audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left my review. There is not a single illustration in the entire pages of the book. I was planning on using this book as a read aloud with illustrations to share with my class and am so disappointed that there are no illustrations, which was the only reason I chose to purchase this book. I have requested a refund. Got this for my 12 year old daughter to read, and she loves it. I read it in middle school and loved it, so I'm happy she's enjoying it. This is definitely a classic, great story, but readers will do well to remember that is was written in a time before the PC Police existed.
White Fang Notes
I've used it as an opportunity to teach my daughter a lesson in right, wrong, and popular opinion. I know it's a classic and it is a great story filled with amazing imagery.
For that, I like it quite a bit. But, to this reader, 3 sentences in every paragraph could be cut and the book could still hold together. Especially when Jack is talking about meat. We get it Jack! Animals eat meat and aren't all ceremonial about it! The first part of the book is a great hook and it all flows perfectly. As I said, I was deeply into Les Miserables, both the Kindle version and the Audible version, but the author goes off into several long five hour philosophy tangents and I needed a break from one of these.
Having the Audible to go with the Kindle version made this current experience all the more terrific. I highly recommend combining the two mediums together for greater entertainment and increased comprehension.
This classic story accurately captures the adaptability of the wolf-dog. One-quarter dog, three-quarters wolf. The power of instinct, the power of nature, and the cruelty and charity of mankind. This is a story that should be read by everyone. One person found this helpful. See all 1, reviews.

White Fang Notes
One Eye does not return from his hunting. One day the cub and she-wolf encounter Indians.
One of them calls to the she-wolf by a strange name: They name the cub White Fang. When they reach the Indian camp, White Fang is tormented by an older puppy named Lip-lip. He is abused by all the dogs in the Indian camp, and becomes vicious and ferocious. White Fang is put on the sled team of Gray Beaver's son, Mit-sah. After they return to the camp, famine strikes again, and White Fang goes into the Wild to live.
When the famine passes, he returns to Gray Beaver and travels with him to Fort Yukon, where Gray Beaver becomes addicted to whiskey. He sells White Fang to Beauty Smith, who keeps him caged and forces him to fight other dogs.

Cherokee's jaws clamp down on his throat and he can't escape. Weedon Scott, a stranger visiting the area, rescues him. Weedon Scott and his friend Matt realize how intelligent White Fang is and try to tame him, but are unsuccessful at first. Scott shows White Fang that he will not be cruel.
White Fang is out of place in California, and is not entirely trusted by the Scott family. One of Scott's dogs, Collie, particularly distrusts him. However, White Fang dramatically proves himself. First, White Fang saves Scott by getting help when Scott falls off his horse and breaks his leg. Then, he earns the title "Blessed Wolf" by killing an escaped convict who was intent on murdering Weedon Scott's father.
