Bookroo's summary

Buck, a powerful dog thrust into the harsh Alaskan frontier, must adapt to the brutal 'law of club and fang.' Facing fierce rivals and the deadly cold, can he overcome his owners' blunders and survive? Discover Buck's journey of survival and transformation in a world where only the strongest endure.

From the publisher

Themes: Hi-Lo, adapted classics, low level classics. Timeless Classics–designed for the struggling reader and adapted to retain the integrity of the original classic. These classic novels will grab a student’s attention from the first page. Included are eight pages of end-of-book activities to enhance the reading experience. Buck is much bigger and stronger than the other dogs. But he wasn’t born to the savage life of the Alaskan frontier. Is it too late for him to learn the “law of club and fang”? Can he survive the bitter weather, a vicious rival, and the deadly mistakes of his bungling owners?
