Add to basketPaperback. Nine-year-old Andrew's parents run an animal rescue center from their home. When they get a call about a wolf hit by a vehicle, they rush to the scene to find the wolf's three orphaned wolf pups. The pups are unable to survive on their own, and the family brings them home to care for them. Andrew forms a strong bond with the pups, feeding them and even sleeping outside their pen so they feel less scared. He promises to do everything he can so the pups can be re-released into the wild. With the help of a local trapper, Andrew and his family locate the pups' old den and leave a blanket with their scent to help the pack remember them. Soon the pups are old enough for release. Even though Andrew wants them to be free, it's hard to let them go. He will miss them, but this was always the plan: for the wolves to get back to their wilderness home and rejoin their pack. The epub edition of this title is fully accessible. Praise for Eric Walters: "A profound, realistic story of a multiracial family.This brilliantly written tale is a lovely introduction to the important topics of wildfires and animal sanctuaries for young readers. Great for animal lovers and children curious about nature."--School Library Journal, starred review for Bear in the Family In this partially illustrated early chapter book, Andrew and his parents rescue three orphaned wolf pups who can't survive on their own. Andrew befriends the pups and helps take care of them at his parents' wildlife rehabilitation center until they can be released back into the wild. Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.
