BR 2-01 White Fang

He could not understand. Other dogs did not fight like this. (p.40)

This book's story is about the wolf. His name is White Fang. His father is a wolf. His mother is half wolf and half dog. Her name is Kiche. White Fang's coat is gray. It inherited from his father. He is suspicious with ferocity.
He was born in the wild, in an area called the Yukon. This area is in the north-west of Canada. Winters in the Yukon are very cold and very long. In some areas the ground is frozen all year.　He grows up vigorously in this severe environment.

After his father died, he and his mother are picked up by a man. The man's name is Gray Beaver. White Fang learned about a human's life. He put up tepees near a big river and lived with his family. White Fang is trained by Gray's son. He became the sled dog.
After he is got from a different owner, he lived as a fighting dog. His new owner is Beauty Smith. He abused White Fang. He became more and more ferocious in disfavor with humans. He was a fighting dog without the defeats, but one day he gets injured by the fight with the bulldog. The bulldog caught selective breeding and the battle training. The man named Weedon Scott helped him. He took White Fang from Beauty Smith.
Weedon is kind to White Fang. White Fang knows the feelings called love for the first time and becomes faithful to him.

I was moved. This is a heartwarming story.
