Forgot to update on this book.
Could not stop reading.
Short, engaging, great messages, stands the test of time. Simple but good.

Thank you, John Thornton.

I hadn’t read this book in maybe 30 years but I remembered that I loved it, so I re-read it yesterday and was struck by how intense it is. One of my all-time favorite books.
I LOVED this book as a kid. I'm not even sure how many times I read it. This along with "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea." Where my 2 favorite books. I attribute my love of reading to these 2 books.

I read this book in fourth grade, I think. One of the few that holds up into your thirties. Hadn't remembered the ending, and I'm glad.
This is a re-read for me, having first read it as a teenager, back in the 1970's. I'd almost forgotten how wonderfully written both this and "White Fang" are. If you're a lover of wild-life and/or of dogs, this short novel set around the time of the Klondike gold rush is an absolute must.
