Praise for this book

Bank Street Best Book of the Year

"Skillfully, the author draws young readers in by inviting them to howl like wolves...Though not long, the text is relatively dense and informative, set directly on Henderson's appealing watercolor and pencil illustrations...A welcome addition to the author's extensive nature shelf." --Kirkus Reviews
