I'm a 7th grade English teacher and have to pretend I like a bunch of shitty books that we read every year including Hatchet, Bud Not Buddy, Diary of Anne Frank, Fault in Our Stars, etc. (I don't pick the books, it's a poor inner city school and we get whatever's donated)
We just got copies of Call of the Wild and I was ready for more of the same but holy fuck that shit was good. is it /lit/ approved?
>>9255745
Yes.
Why are you an english teacher if you don't know Jack London? Holy shit, did you lie on your resume?
>>9255756
no job gives a fuck what books you've read. you think I put my goodreads account on my resume? teaching jobs are just 1. can you control a classroom and 2. do you care enough to prepare meaningful lessons
>>9255778
Yes, but you're an english teacher. I assume basic knowledge of books would be included in the requirements to teach it. jfc
>>9255789
nope. suburban teachers maybe but my school in my first two years didn't even have books
If it is good /lit/'s approval really shouldn't matter. I've read some comic adaptations and yeah, he was pretty good.
But also this >>9255756. How the fuck haven't you heard of London? He was one of the most popular writers back in his day. I live in a small shithole on the other side of the ocean and even here kids used to read him.

God it's a fucking tragedy.

Lol, just lol.
