Question

What are the character traits of Perrault(from "The Call Of The Wild)?
Use evidence from pages 15, 16, and 21 (4-5 sentences)

Answer 1

Perrault is practical and businesslike: on page 15 he buys Buck as a working dog and immediately inspects him for strength and health, showing he values usefulness. He is experienced and competent with sled travel—page 16 shows him handling the dogs and giving clear orders, which proves he knows how to run a team. Perrault is resourceful and quick-thinking, adapting plans and supplies for the dangerous routes (see page 21 where he organizes the outfit and issues instructions). He is also fair and not cruel: rather than tormenting Buck, he trains and feeds him so the dog can do his job well (pages 15–21 illustrate this respectful, work-focused treatment).
