Scholastic Classics: White Fang by Jack London (author) and David Wardle (illustrator)

WHITE FANG is the story of a half-dog, half wolf, the greatest fighter of them all. From cub to sled dog to fighting dog, White Fang’s journey is long and hard – yet deep down he has memories of love and affection and slowly, after forming a bond with his owner, they start to resurface. Widely regarded as a modern masterpiece, WHITE FANG was first published in 1906. The story takes place in Yukon Territory, Canada, during the Klondike Gold Rush at the end of the 19th-century, and details the wild wolf-dog’s journey, exploring White Fang’s world and showing how kind – and brutal – humans can be.
