The story of Wolf 8, one of the wolves reintroduced the Yellowstone National Park. Wolf 8 is the runt of the litter, often picked on by his siblings. But he shows great strength and wisdom as he grows. He meets another wolf and takes over raising her pups after the death of their father. Together they have adventures, excitement and family drama.
A very interesting book that follows the lives of a few of the wolves reintroduced to Yellowstone. The narrative style was engaging and easy to follow. It is easy to see parallels and connections between wolves and humans.
