“Riveting and lyrical, A Wolf Called Wander is a vibrantly imagined celebration of the natural world. Don’t miss this dazzling tour de force.” Katherine Applegate author of The One and Only Ivan
“One of the most beautifully written middle grade stories I’ve read in years. Rosanne Parry’s writing brings the wild alive in such a vivid way and Mónica Armiño’s illustrations are breathtakingly good. This is a special book” —Abi Elphinstone author of Sky Song and Dream Snatcher
“Parry’s powerful prose and Armiño’s hauntingly beautiful illustrations take you across vast landscapes, following the swift feet of a wolf. A Wolf Called Wander is a rare gem, a book celebrating the rawness and beauty of nature. A spellbinding story.” —Gill Lewis author of Run Wild
“Steeped in wildness and wonder. A moving and harrowing journey of a brave wolf in search of family. Readers with a passion for wildlife will love the rich illustrations and wolf’s-eye view of a landscape filled with danger and hope.” —Sarah Lean author of The Sand Dog
“Well-researched…a brilliantly written story. I didn’t want to put the book down. The illustrations are superb.” —Tsa Palmer, UK Wolf Conservation Trust
