Yeah I own it. It's a little hard to understand though, there are a lot of words in it that I don't understand. And yes I am english... I really like it though. Not much wolf part in it though. The wolf part comes at the end.

I read this book a long long time ago, and I own it along with White Fang (another Jack London book I'd recommend) they are very classic books.

Call of the Wild is more, 'dog goes through a ton of stuff and then is set free to be wild', while White Fang is really just the opposite, it's about a wild wolf-dog getting used to civilizaion after being captured.

Two good books.

I own this book.

Be warned that even if it is quite a skinny book, it has a wide variety of language so it might be hard to understand sometimes.

But anyway, it's a great book.

I read a quick version of this book in a reading class I have. I actually found it depressing.

To me, it was pretty good. The feel was a little fantasy, but the descriptions were good. I personally liked White Fang better. Just my thoughts. :)
