Summary: "Two Little Savages" by Ernest Thompson Seton is a novel written in the early 20th century that follows the adventures of two boys, Yan and his companion, as they immerse themselves in the skills and lore of the Native American lifestyle. Set against the backdrop of nature and the exploration of their surroundings, the book delves into themes of childhood exploration, self-discovery, and the relationship between humans and the natural world. At the start of the book, we meet Yan, a twelve-year-old boy with an intense fascination for wildlife and woodcraft, which often leads him to sneak away to the outdoors despite his father's strict rules against it. The narrative highlights his longing for freedom and knowledge of the natural world, contrasting his strict home life with the unbounded joy he finds in nature. Yan's adventures include his discovery of an array of wildlife, his observations of birds and tracks, and his dreams of living like an Indian, which reflect his deep indifference towards societal expectations. This opening showcases both his internal desires and the challenges he faces, setting the stage for a rich journey of exploration and adventure that awaits him.
