The wolf pack that saved the life of a human girl, Julie Edwards (Miyax Kapugen), has seen many changes since her return to her human family. So has Julie, who's grown up enough now to plan marriage to her beloved Peter, an Inuit from Siberia. While Julie formally studies the subjects that will enable her to live on the tundra and study her wolves first-hand, as her life's work, the pack's new alpha wolf learns to fill his dead father's role despite his extreme youth for bearing that responsibility. Among the challenges Kapu faces: Raw Bones, a former alpha from another pack who wants desperately (and tries repeatedly) to seize leadership for himself; Ice Blink, a female who carries the deadly rabies virus; and famine caused by caribou herds that fail to migrate south through the Avlik Pack's territory. Wolves, like humans, are social animals who communicate verbally as well as in other ways. Julie learned their language during her time among them, and the friendships she formed then remain strong enough so she can rescue two famine-born pups who would otherwise starve to death as their mother's milk fails to sustain them. But what is the eventual outcome of that rescue? And just how much do Julie's teachers really know about wolves, and how much do they assume incorrectly? In this third volume of Craighead George's trilogy, Julie comes of age as a sort of Jane Goodall of Alaskan wolves. If you're as sentimental as I am about babies of any species, you may find some of the brutally honest passages it contains hard to read; but without that honesty, this would not be the thoughtful tale that it is. It's suitable for readers of any age, and I recommend it highly. First Edition [1997], First Printing stated., Books<

From the author of the Newbery Medal- winning "Julie of the Wolves" and its sequel, Julie, comes a third exciting 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.
