Product Description

The wolf star, brightest of all in the summer sky, shines over my home ground. I know every hidden lake and rocky ridge, but if my pack is not in the mountains, then it is no home to me. I feel a howl deep inside, but dare not let it out.

Swift lives with his pack in the mountains, until one day his home and family are lost. Alone and starving, Swift must make a choice- stay and try to eke out a desperate life on the borders of his old hunting grounds, or strike out and find a new place to call home. The journey Swift must go on is long and full of peril for a lone wolf, and he'll need to take every chance he can. Will he find the courage to survive all by himself?

Inspired by a true story, A Wolf Called Wander is about family, courage and survival. With beautiful illustrations from artist M nica Armino and an extra factual section about wolves and their environment, this book is perfect for animal lovers.The wolf star, brightest of all in the summer sky, shines over my home ground.
