SUMMARY:

London's "To Build a Fire" highlights an unnamed man, simply referred to as “the man,” on the Yukon trail. He is in the middle of a cold and isolated setting. He goes on a journey through -75 degree weather with nothing but his lunch and his dog. Regardless of the deteriorating weather, the man trudges on to his boys' house miles away. The dog questions his mission, but stays loyal. Should the man give up? Will he and his dog survive this trek across the Yukon?

This 7th - 10th grade canonized work allows students to look at themselves, their world, and being too ambitious.
