Which lines could be part of a character analysis for White Fang?

Answer

I like reading about White Fang because he is part dog and part wolf. His adventures are very exciting!

White Fang should not get into fights with Lip-lip. The two animals have a lot in common and should be friends.

White Fang is an impulsive but brave pup. He learns quickly from his experiences with dogs and men.

The book White Fang, by Jack London, takes place in an American Indian village. The main character is the son of Kiche, who is half-dog and half-wolf.
