One day was vary like another,but Buck noticed that the weather was getting colder.One morning,the ship is engines stopped,and there was a feeling of excitement in the ship. Francois leashed the dogs and took them outside.At the first step Buck is feet went into something soft and white.He jumped back in surprise. The soft,white thing was also falling through the air, and it fell onto him.He tried to smell it,and then caught some on his tongue. It bit like fire,and then disappeared.He tried again and the same thing happened. People were watching him and laughing,and Buck felt ashamed,although he did not know why. It was his first snow.
