Fox
by Margaret Wild
Unsettling, dramatic and ultimately richly rewarding, Fox is a book unlike any other. The tale of a partnership between Magpie and Dog and the triangle that results when Fox appears, it is rich in allegory, ripe for discussion and radiant in illustration. With complexities that resonate throughout the seemingly simple story line, Fox is at the same time confusing, powerful, and thought provoking. It is a raw, open, book that combines potent prose with equally potent illustrations to touch readers - adults and children alike.
Walk With a Wolf

Walk with a wolf ... as she hunts alone, howls to her pack, and greets her half-grown cubs and black-furred mate. Hunt with the pack as it follows the scent of a bull moose, crouching and charging. Learn all about these lords of the far north, who hunt for food, but have been hunted by man nearly to extinction. Janni Howker helps readers see this mysterious, elusive, and often maligned creature as it really is.
