He could see them, beyond Spitz and to either side, half-crouching for the spring, their eyes fixed upon him." (Chapter 4 Page 42) Buck, blinded by his lust and greed for power overthrew the once lead dog, Spitz, to gain more of what he wanted, power. Another example of this is, "At last, at the end of the fourth day, he pulled the great moose down." (Chapter 7) Buck's greed for more and more power drove him to kill a large bull moose in which he found a worthy opponent. However, this kill was not for food, there were plenty of cows and calves around the bull to attack.
The plot is same regarding Chris’ journey in both the movie and the book. However it is the execution of the book that gives Into the Wild more depth. Unlike the movie the book is portrayed through the eyes of Jon Krakauer
That didn’t turn out good for Brian though sense he got attacked by the bear after he kicked it, but Buck on the other hand didn’t understand what was happening in his story he didn’t know why Perrault and Francios would not let him into the tent and was confused on what to do after he didn’t know about the danger that he was getting into with not knowing where to sleep while Brian was aware of the bears and knew about them and what they could
Buck is being called into the wild. His life events changed who he was and sent him free in spirit and body. Once Thornton was kill Buck was able to be free and just be a wild dog with the others (napierkowski). In my opinion, this book shouldn’t have been in the category of banned and challenged books.
Although they are very different books, Walden, and Call of the Wild share a lot of the same ideas and beliefs. There were many characters in both books. In one book, the characters were smart, handy, and swift. In Call of the Wild, the characters were more tough, stern, and rough. The traits the characters showed were extremely different, but all of them had to survive in the wilderness sometimes using the same methods, and other time using completely different ones.
Who will win the fight the book or the movie of “The Call of the Wild?” Standing on one side is the book very detailed,but has spots that are hard to understand. On the other side is the movie which has a narrator that gives detail about what is going on in the movie, but does not explain what is happening. In the book Buck is kidnapped from his home, while in the movie John Thorton finds him in the bottom of the boat he is riding in. Throughout the book Thorton does not know about buck only the adventure that lies ahead, in the movie however John wants Buck from the beginning of the movie till the moment he dies in the end.
I think the movie does a better job of telling the story. The reason I think this is because we can see everything Brian goes through in the wild , like when Brian has the recurring memory of his mother cheating on his father. In the book the text said he was knocked into the water by a bear and fought the bear before it happened in the book it says he was knocked into the water by a moose not a bear. The movie was also better by showing us what happened to the pilot by letting us see his face when brian gets the survival pack by showing us what exactly happened to the captain 's head. The movie did have some similarities like when the porcupine quilled him after he threw his hatchet at it and when he ate the gut cherries.
After he was stolen from the Judge, he meets the man in the red sweater who teaches him the rules about men with clubs. He then joins his first dog team delivering mail with Perrault and Francois. He has to fight Spitz to become the lead dog, Buck wins this fight. Then he goes to what will be his last dog team and runs with them until he meets John Thornton. Then Buck pulls a thousand pound sled one hundred yards.
As soon as Buck is traded off, he is called to by the wild but cannot leave, due to the “debt” he owes to Thornton. Love is the only outcome that emerges from Buck’s relationship with Thornton, which soon leads to him having to prove himself through a series of tests. The relationship damages Buck’s worth, allowing its measurability to revert back to the amount of money one is willing to pay for him. Auerbach even stresses the fact that Thorton takes advantage of Buck and uses his love to his own benefit.
The beginning of the novel shows us that Buck is a pampered dog who had lived in the Santa Clara Valley under the property of judge miller and was the ruler of the house. He was feared, and respected by the other dogs. He has everything he wanted and will soon have it taken away from him. Manuel, the gardener, will abduct Buck in his house and that will be the beginning of a cruel life for him.
Since he learned that he can't kill the second or first time, he survives and can continue his quest. Second Buck learns safety. For instance he learns the law of fang, if u fall down you die. If you fall the pack of dogs will eat you.
As Jim Rohn once said, “It is not what happens that determines the major part of your future... it is what you do about what happens that counts.” Buck, the main character in the novel The Call of the Wild, is a victim of life 's many unexpected obstacles. From domesticated and tamed to wild and primitive, the transformation of Buck from beginning to end is a result of nature and nurture combined. Nature, his genetic makeup, proves to be the most dominant in his development of becoming a free creature of the wilderness.
The call of the wild is how Buck the main character in the book is moved from santa clara to the klondike for his ancestrial genes of how great they lead dogsledding packs, and throughout the book Buck overcomes many different obstacles to be te best of the best. The hunger games is a story where there is a game where you compete to survive, the game is put on by Capitol the evil antagonist which is cruel and for some reason likes to see death. These two books are completely different in many different ways, but it all follows the theme as the “Survival of the

I did like the book “Call of the Wild”. It had many thing that I wanted to change or didn’t like. In these next paragraphs I will tell you what I wanted to change or what was liked. There were many things that were interesting and also boring to me.
