pickHow could I resist this new edition of Wolf's Rain? The Perfect Edition collects both manga volumes and has some tiny extras. It's also a new translation.
I watched the anime and read the mangas when I was a teen and loved it dearly. As a grown I can say that two volumes are not enough for this story to be fully told. I wish there was more. Still, I loved being reunited with those wolves again and also saw some aspects that are still current.
pickThis novel is heartbreaking. I liked the characters, even Luke, the father of Edward and Cara. The story is told from each character‘s perspective. The love shared between them is strong. 4.5/5
pickA children‘s novel full of wonderful illustrations of Wander, a wolf, journeying over a thousand miles in search of a home.
I enjoyed this book immensely.

Since this book doesn‘t have words, I think a good lesson in the classroom for it has to do with comprehension having the students write words for the book.
This book is good for independent reading (no words), but you could make a read-aloud work too, (maybe). I think most kids will enjoy the content (friendship with/helping out an animal).
pickA wordless book about a girl who helps a wolf pup lost in the snow and gets some help in return. Very sweet. The personable illustrations tell the story perfectly- no words are needed anyway! The book describes itself as a “satisfying story about friendship and trust“.
pickI‘d imagine it‘s difficult to maintain a tight organizational principle and condense your thoughts when your book hinges on an epiphany about how everything is interconnected. But imagine?! Berry would‘ve been unstoppable! As it is, her concept is phenomenal and there are some deeply thoughtful passages and beautiful sentences. If you like nature writing, and you‘re a patient reader (or listener)…👇🏻
