Woodsong - Around the Mangoes A serene escape to the charm of old Bangalore Woodsong is a gated villa community that lets imagination run amok over 20 acres of freshness. The first half consists of Paulsen's early experiences running sled dogs in Minnesota and then in Alaska, and the second half describes the roads and animals he faces in the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race. Paulsen opens his book with a vivid retelling of a story in which he watched brush wolves kill and devour a live doe in the woods. This event revealed the raw, unfabricated realities of nature to him. Paulsen recounts many incidents he has undergone with his dogs on their runs, including times he has been carried to safety by his sled dogs after breaking his knee on the trail, became violently ill in the midst of extreme cold conditions, and a variety of mysterious happenings in the Alaskan wilderness. In all of their adventures, he bonds closely with his dogs, particularly one named "Storm". Storm was an ideal dog that taught Paulsen many life values. The race proves to be long and arduous. Extreme cold conditions and difficult terrain put both he and his team to the test. He is repeatedly afflicted by lifelike hallucinations caused by extreme sleep deprivation, such as a man with a trench coat talking about educational grants, and hallucinating about a man hallucinating. But Gary is spurred onward by the beauty of the race and his devotion to the team. During the race, Gary experiences a unique feeling when he is running with his dogs. After nearly seventeen days, he at last crosses the finish line in Nome. He places last in the race, but the accomplishment and adventure are all that matter to him. Gary feels at home and a sense of peace when he is sledding with the dogs in the race. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. This article does not cite any sources. Woodsong - Around the mangoes

Pretty good book about sled dogs and trapping, as a lot of detail in the scenes so far I like the way the main character thinks. He thinks like someone real not some other book I've read before. It reminded me of a book I read in elementary school but I forgot the name. I believe the theme is hardship because of how much the man and dogs go through. Feb 01, J rated it it was amazing Shelves: armchair-travel , adventure , nature. Exhilarating NF about wilderness, endurance anddogs. Bittersweet with some gross-out humor. Paulsen has won awards for his teen fiction. With Woodsong he tries his hand at NF. The book is filled with lovely and sometimes terrifying glimpses into his life living on the edge of wilderness in Minnesota running his dogs. It finishes with an accounting of his first Iditerod. Exhilarating NF about wilderness, endurance and…dogs. Mar 06, Abbi rated it it was amazing. This book was amazing! It tells about the relationships of most people and pets, especially dogs. This also tells about how author Gary paulsen has competed in the iditarod and all the things he went through about his dogs and his experience with iditarod, amazing! A must read for everyone of all ages! They assigned this book at school two years ago and it was the second-worst book I've ever read. There is no plot. Nothing happens. Nobody wants to read about a man who owns dogs. Nov 18, Devin rated it really liked it Recommends it for: everyone. Mar 12, Alexis rated it it was ok. I had to read it for school. Kind of strange. No story line. Just a bunch of Gary Paulen's stories. Last third is his story of the Iditarod. Jan 19, Sherry Edens rated it it was ok. Not a fan of this book. May 16, Ronny rated it it was amazing. Personal Response I gave this book a five out of five. I really enjoyed reading this book. The book was very entertaining with all the stories he told and all the wildlife he talked about. All the stories were very interesting. Plot The plot is Gary Paulsen telling stories about sledding dogs and what lessons nature has taught him about life. When he first started with the sledding dogs he did not know much about them or nature. They taught him a lot of lessons of life and how things are different Personal Response I gave this book a five out of five. They taught him a lot of lessons of life and how things are different in the wild with animals than in civilization. He then explains his training for the Iditarod and talked about each day of the Iditarod. The Iditarod is a very hard grueling course that is 1, miles long. Every day was a grueling experience for him and was a fight to get through the day. Characterization Gary Paulsen loves the outdoors and the wilderness. He is a writer and does dog sledding. He is very compassionate to animals and the wild. At first he thought he knew a lot about nature and what happens in it. By the end of the book he realized he barely knew anything about it and how it works. He learned many lessons from his dogs and just by being in the outdoors a lot. He saw events happen that changed how he thought what happens in nature. Setting It takes place in Minnesota and Alaska. He lives in Minnesota and he ran the Iditarod trail in Alaska. Theme The theme of the book is to be at one with nature and show compassion to nature. He also learned that the predators have to win sometimes otherwise they would die instead of the prey. Recommendation I would recommend this book to boys in middle school or older who like the outdoors and nature. I think starting in middle school the kid would be old enough to handle the thought of blood and what really happens in nature. He goes in depth in his description of when he saw animals kill other animals. He describes how much blood was there and how horrible it looked like it was for the prey. That would not be good for younger kids. Mar 25, Carson Charves added it. I thought this book did a very good job on making the scenes in the book very detailed making me think I was right there with him. I think people should read it even if you don't like outdoors because I think at least the first four chapters will get to you. The whole book on how he had been hunting for year and stopped and realized that killing animals is a wrong thing to do and just to let them live there own life. He had a dog sled team and got to know all the dogs extremely well and knew who I thought this book did a very good job on making the scenes in the book very detailed making me think I was right there with him. He had a dog sled team and got to know all the dogs extremely well and knew who would always work hard and who would get tired and slow down. He loved everyone of his dogs like they were his kids. He entered in the Alaska dog sled race. I would love to tell you more but if you want to know what all happens throughout this book and during the race you need to read, "Woodsong," by Gary Paulsen. Jan 28, Mark rated it really liked it Shelves: audiobooks. I recall snagging a copy of Woodsong, shortly after being completely captivated with Paulsen's , which chronicled his first time attending the Iditarod, the grueling 1, mile dog-sled race, through Alaska. It is a great, heart- pounding memoir. This slim book, was written a few years before. In the first half, he gives short, personal essays, on living in the wilds of northern Minnesota. Running trap-lines, showdowns with bear and moose and his bountiful love and admiration of his I recall snagging a copy of Woodsong, shortly after being completely captivated with Paulsen's Winterdance, which chronicled his first time attending the Iditarod, the grueling 1, mile dog-sled race, through Alaska. Running trap-lines, showdowns with bear and moose and his bountiful love and admiration of his trusty dogs. The second half, deals with some of the highlights of the race, which he completely expands in his next book. If you love the outdoors and outdoor writing, give this a try. May 28, Tobyn Brennan added it. I liked this book. I have read a lot of Gary Paulsen's books. I like them because they are about the outdoors. I loved this book because it was in Alaska. I have always wanted to Alaska and run a dog team like this guy. I liked the part about the deer where it got killed. It reminds me of the time I killed my first deer. I have killed a lot of deer since I was 9. I like hunting unlike this guy. He doesnt like it because he likes animals. This wasn't my favorite Paulson book but it was a good I liked this book. This wasn't my favorite Paulson book but it was a good book. Apr 27, Nile Schuett rated it really liked it. I really enjoyed this book as I do just about every book by Gary Paulsen. This book tells you the story of how Gary got into racing dogs. He talks about running trap lines in northern Minnesota. Gary has a major accident while racing dogs and he shares it in the book. This book keeps you on your toes. You're always wondering what will happen or if the author will be ok. Gary lets inexperienced dogs lead without paying much attention and they go off of a small cliff. A large stick impaled him in I really enjoyed this book as I do just about every book by Gary Paulsen. A large stick impaled him in the leg and he is bleeding fast. It gives the reader a good question, what would you do if you were in this situation? I think it is fun to think through what I would do if this had happen to me. This book is a very good choice for anyone who liked or Brian's Winter. Dec 12, Gil STanton rated it really liked it. Outdoorsy, brave, and determined are all words I would use to describe the main character, Gary Paulsen in Woodsong. Paulsen lives in Minnesota and in the bitter cold uses sled dogs as transportation. He delivers necessities and gets paid by his customers. He lives in the woods with his wife and son and faces many challenges that can cause injury or fatality. He learns numerous lessons from his dogs, other animals in nature, and the dog race that lasted days. This book is amazing because there Outdoorsy, brave, and determined are all words I would use to describe the main character, Gary Paulsen in Woodsong. This book is amazing because there are multiple surreal situations including hallucinations that are fascinating to read. One example is the time he saw an imaginary eskimo helping him. There are frequent emotional scenes between Gary and his dogs. For example, when one of his dogs died, Gary Paulsen had the dog in a cage. I would give this book a five out of five in quality and entertainment. This book was written and published before Winterdance , and if you're looking for essays and stories related to dog running and Iditarod racing, in my opinion Winterdance is the vastly superior option between these two. Woodsong had its moments, but overall it felt Repetitive in all the wrong places, and noticeably strange in others. Regardless of any latent weirdness, I'm likely always going to be all-in for essays about dogs and people who love them like members This book was written and published before Winterdance , and if you're looking for essays and stories related to dog running and Iditarod racing, in my opinion Winterdance is the vastly superior option between these two. Regardless of any latent weirdness, I'm likely always going to be all-in for essays about dogs and people who love them like members of their families. Apr 26, Vanessa rated it it was amazing Shelves: animals , adventure , dogs. I love his writing style and the subjects of working with sled dogs, living in Alaska and other places out in the country where you make what you need to survive. Love the stories where the dog's save his life by how they do and do not follow his lead in order to save their own lives too. Training and running the Iditarod Sled race in Alaska is amazing. Apr 24, Justin rated it it was amazing. As a big fan of Gary Paulsen, I loved this book. It's not exactly a biography but it includes small adventures and stories during Paulsen's time training for the Alaskan Iditarod. In some ways, it explains how his experiences out in the wilderness led to him producing such beautifully written books such as the Hatchet series and Tucket's Travels. His stories are incredible, funny, sad, heartwarming, and even eerie. Paulsen lived a life of adventure out in Alaska before writing his books which I As a big fan of Gary Paulsen, I loved this book. Paulsen lived a life of adventure out in Alaska before writing his books which I envy. Mar 21, Desara rated it liked it. It was for school. I enjoyed it but hated the comprehension. I really liked this book because it tells you the hardships of nature and what it could teach you. I think this book also tells you about how to take care of sled dogs. I looooved this book My son recommended it to me. He's already made his grandma read it, too. It is so good. And I can't wait to read the author's other books. Readers also enjoyed. Young Adult.
