| Summary | "Rescue Dog of the High Pass" by Jim Kjelgaard is a novel written in the mid-20th century. This engaging tale focuses on a young boy named Franz Halle and his loyal dog, an Alpine mastiff named Caesar, as they navigate the challenges of life in the mountainous Swiss Alps. Set against the backdrop of the St. Bernard Hospice, the story delves into themes of personal worth, companionship, and the bravery of rescue dogs that help save travelers lost in the snow. The opening of the book introduces Franz, who struggles with traditional academic subjects but possesses a profound understanding of the forest and mountains that surround him. Although he feels worthless compared to his classmates, he finds solace in his bond with Caesar. As winter approaches, their lives take a pivotal turn when Franz is offered the chance to work at the St. Bernard Hospice, where he hopes to contribute meaningful work alongside Caesar, who proves his worth as a rescue dog. The narrative sets the stage for a heartwarming exploration of courage and the capabilities of both boy and dog in the face of nature's formidable challenges.
