Synopsis "The Call of the Wild (Annotated): A StrongReader Builder(TM) Classic for Dyslexic and Struggling Readers (in English)"

This original version of The Call of the Wild is published in Noah Text(R), a proprietary evidenced-based method of presenting text. Noah Text(R) highlights critical word patterns to help struggling readers, striving readers, those with dyslexia, and English language-learners read with increased fluency, accuracy, and stamina. The Call of the Wild is a short adventure novel about a half-St. Bernard, half-Shepherd dog named Buck, who is kidnapped from his comfortable home in California and sold to become a sled dog in Alaska during the days of the Gold Rush. While Buck adapts to his new harsh life, he discovers his ancient roots and summons boundless strength. This gripping story, which has been produced in several film versions starring actors ranging from Clark Gable to Harrison Ford, has remained enormously popular since its original publication more than a century ago. (Note to Educators: This unique print presentation enables students to see critical word patterns that make the text more accessible and help them improve their reading skills. Thus, this book can be used as a stand-alone or in conjunction with audio support for multisensory, immersive learning.)

Jack London (1876-1916), seudónimo de John Griffith Chaney, es uno de los grandes escritores estadounidenses de los albores del siglo XX. Su mundo se inspira en una interpretación muy subjetiva de la filosofía de Nietzsche y se construye a partir del principio de lucha por la supervivencia. Nacido en San Francisco, fue esencialmente un niño autodidacta que leía con avidez los fondos de la biblioteca pública. Con diecisiete años se embarcó en su primera goleta, rumbo a Japón. Tras varias experiencias como marinero y vagabundo -razón por la que también fue encarcelado-, London acudió a la Oakland High School y, posteriormente, a la Universidad de California, que tuvo que abandonar por problemas económicos. Como muchos, sufrió la fiebre del oro hasta que, finalmente, se dedicó a la escritura.
