While this is one of her older books, Jean Craighead George has masterfully shown us life through the eyes of the wolf - though the eyes of nature. Yes it can be a difficult read, and its pictures, while beautiful, sometimes it is hard to make out the object among the ink strokes. I honestly am a fan of George's and can understand her writing, which can be difficult for some to grasp. I mean, wolves having language, that's silly right? (Her wolf books are among my favorites, so see sarcasm in the dictionary ;) ) ( )
