Jack London: The Call of the Wild

Jack London

The Call of the Wild is a novel by Jack London published in 1903. The story is set in the Yukon during the 1890s Klondike Gold Rush—a period in which strong sled dogs were in high demand. The novel's central character is a dog named Buck, a domesticated dog living at a ranch in the Santa Clara Valley of California as the story opens. Stolen from his home and sold into service as sled dog in Alaska, he reverts to a wild state. Buck is forced to fight in order to dominate other dogs in a harsh climate. Eventually he sheds the veneer of civilization, relying on primordial instincts and learned experience to emerge as a leader in the wild. The terrible, never relenting work of pulling sleds in sub-freezing temperatures combined with little food and rest quickly killed any dog not extremely tough. It almost kills Buck but his fierce determination to survive finally brings him through. London lived for most of a year in the Yukon collecting material for the book.

Tommy The Toy Soldier - A...

Christopher Allen

In the rolling Devon countryside near Appledore, six-year-old Chloe Brown lives with her parents John and Eliza on their dairy farm with Jersey cows. John tends the gentle herd while Eliza creates a warm, loving home filled with the memory of Chloe's great grandmother.
On a rainy day, curious Chloe ventures into the attic and discovers her great grandmother's old toy chest. Inside, she finds a magical collection of Victorian toys: Tommy, a brave tin soldier drummer in a red uniform with his entire battalion of fellow soldiers, Arabella the graceful porcelain ballerina, Sooty the cheerful chimney sweep, Sir Gallop the wooden rocking horse, Patches the raggedy bear, Captain Whiskers the one-eyed stuffed cat, Buttons the jack-in-the-box clown, and Rosie the elegant porcelain doll.
As Chloe touches Tommy with loving care, the toys miraculously come to life, awakening from decades of slumber. Tommy explains they belonged to her great grandmother and have waited patiently for another child to love them. Overjoyed at their freedom, the toys eagerly befriend Chloe.
Together, they embark on wonderful adventures throughout the farmhouse and farm. Tommy leads his soldier battalion in marching parades while beating his drum, Arabella performs beautiful ballet dances, and Sooty cheerfully sweeps and cleans. They play hide-and-seek, have tea parties, build castles, and explore the countryside, even meeting the friendly Jersey cows.
The toys teach Chloe valuable lessons: Tommy shows courage and leadership, the soldiers demonstrate teamwork, Arabella embodies grace, Sooty proves work can be joyful, and each friend contributes their unique gifts. They hold a grand celebration party, cementing their friendship.
As Chloe grows up and eventually has children of her own, she brings them to meet the magical toys. The cycle continues as Tommy and his friends welcome new generations of children, proving that love and friendship transcend time.
