Mowat's account of the summer he lived in the frozen tundra alone—studying the wolf population and developing a deep affection for the wolves (who were of no threat to caribou or man)—is today celebrated as a classic of nature writing, at once a tale of remarkable adventures and indelible record of myths and magic of wolves. This book is worth reading, but it's a whopper--wolves don't live on small rodents alone.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"Text Text__title1\" data-testid=\"bookTitle\" aria-label=\"Book title: The Dog Who Wouldn't Be\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Dog Who Wouldn't Be\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"Text Text__title1\" data-testid=\"bookTitle\" aria-label=\"Book title: The Dog Who Wouldn't Be\"\u003eFarely Mowat's best-loved book tells the splendidly entertaining story of his boyhood on the Canadian prairies. Mutt's pedigree was uncertain, but his madness was indisputable. He climbed tress and ladders, rode passenger in an open car wearing goggles and displaying hunting skills that bordered on sheer genius. He was a marvelous dog, worthy of an unusual boy growing up in a raw, untamed wilderness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"Text Text__title1\" data-testid=\"bookTitle\" aria-label=\"Book title: The Boat Who Wouldn't Float\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Boat Who Wouldn't Float\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"Text Text__title1\" data-testid=\"bookTitle\" aria-label=\"Book title: The Boat Who Wouldn't Float\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIt seemed like a good idea. Tired of everyday life ashore, Farley Mowat would find a sturdy boat in Newfoundland and roam the salt sea over, free as a bird. What he found was the worst boat in the world, and she nearly drove him mad. The Happy Adventure, despite all that Farley and his Newfoundland helpers could do, leaked like a sieve. Her engine only worked when she felt like it. Typically, on her maiden voyage, with the engine stuck in reverse, she backed out of the harbour under full sail. And she sank, regularly.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHow Farley and a varied crew, including the intrepid lady who married him, coaxed the boat from Newfoundland to Lake Ontario is a marvellous story. The encounters with sharks, rum-runners, rum and a host of unforgettable characters on land and sea make this a very funny book for readers of all ages.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Farley Mowat","offers":[{"title":"Pocketbook","offer_id":46498806825181,"sku":"","price":7.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/6860\/1821\/files\/315659.jpg?v=1750198585","url":"https:\/\/thenextchaptergp.com\/products\/the-heroes-copy","provider":"The Next Chapter  -  Books, Puzzles and Gifts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
