My favourite moment in the story is when Scott buys White Fang because it means that the time has come for him to have a good life. He can be happy!

The main words are:

Fang: Because this symbolizes strength and the wild nature of the wolf. Like "snapping his teeth" or "snarled". All of this words represent how this wolf is.

I would like it if White Fang returns to his natural habitat and he lives like a real wolf.

And so, he smells nature and the freedom again and forever.

Yes, it's clear!

I recommend this book especially to people who loves animals.

You learn from this book to respect these animals and don't abuse them because they have feelings too and they don't deserve that humans destroy their lives for their interest.

Also, this book isn't boring, it's very interesting and you can enjoy with this sweet story.
