Have you ever felt that everyone was against you? That’s how Eric felt in the book “Wild Life.” When Eric’s parents are sent to the War on Terror Eric has to go live with his sweet grandma and is overly serious grandpa, Big Darrel, in North Dakota. Eric has always dreamed of going pheasant hunting, and he loves a thrill. When Eric is outside on his grandparents land, he finds a dog with a face full of porky pine nettles. He has never felt so connected to anything in his life, so when the owner of the dog is about to show up, Eric runs away with the dog, camping supplies, and an old shotgun that belonged to is uncle who died in Vietnam to live a wild life. I recommend this book to anyone who loves dogs or hunting. Reviewed by Bobby W.
