    About this series

    The acclaimed final book in the trilogy that begins with the Newbery Medal–winning Julie of the Wolves.

    In this thrilling adventure about the wolf pack that saved the life of a young girl when she was lost on the tundra, Julie has returned to her family, but her wolf pack has a story all its own.

    Fearless but inexperienced Kapu is now the new leader of the pack. He must protect his wolves from the threats of famine and disease and, at the same time, defend himself from bitter rivals, both inside and outside the pack, who are waiting for their chance to overthrow him. The strength of Kapu's leadership will determine not just the well-being of the pack but its very survival.

    Jean Craighead George's research and first-hand observation form this engrossing epic tale that's sure to draw readers into the fascinating world of wolves.
