Reviews

[Ana]

White Fang is a half-wolf, half-dog hybrid who had always had to face battles. From the adventures of a cub, to the life of a sled dog, to the life of a brutal fighting dog, would White Fang ever find the perfect home to spend his life? I believe that White Fang is an inspiring book that can uplift you in some ways. Even when his life is ruined, White Fang still carries on, living his life and being saved from time to time.

I got this for my birthday and honestly I am way too old to be reading these staged books but my brother bought me it anyway. I absolutely loved it. I made me cry and I am so glad it was so dumbed down because I might not have had enough effort for crying if I am constantly trying to figure out what half the words mean. Definitely recommend it for even the most advanced readers.
