In Lesson for the Wolf, young readers meet a wolf who spends his days admiring all the other animals of the tundra. Not content to simply be a wolf, happy and hunting with his pack, he watches the owls, wolverines, and caribou with envy, wishing that he could be like them. Wishing that he could be anything other than a wolf.

But when the magic of the Land finally grants his wish, this wolf finds out that what he admires may not be what he really wants in the end.

“The illustrations contribute a great deal to this picture book. The use of earth tones in brown, green and ochre reinforce the wolf’s desire to be part of the Land.”—CM Magazine
