My spring school visits for A Wolf Called Fire are underway! I’m so grateful for every school that invited me to share a little bit about the joy of writing and the beauty of our natural world. I love book events and I’m grateful for every young reader I’ve had the opportunity to meet. Recently my travels took me to Arizona where I had a brief opportunity to visit Saguaro National Park–a small gem among the many American National Parks I have visited. Thank you to all the park rangers who help preserve our wild spaces.
The picture below is of the Olympic mountains in Washington. My next two books will be set on the Olympic peninsula and the Salish Sea. My earlier books Written in Stone and A Whale of the Wild were both set here, and I’m loving my return to the rainforest. My next books is called A Raven of the Rainforest and it will be on sale at the end of September!
A Wolf Called Fire is a 2025 Junior Library Guild Gold Standard Selection and a #1 Indie Best Seller.
“An exciting and thoughtful portrait inspired by a real animal who succeeded by being different.” book review Kirkus
Though this is billed as a stand-alone novel, it offers an additional perspective on the events that take place in A Wolf Called Wander, as well as a refreshing approach to leadership, and reaches depths that book only probed. VERDICT: This wolf tale presents a diversity of ideologies and perspectives, all of which are sure to help readers reflect on where and how they fit into the world. Highly recommended.–Benjamin Ludwig School Library Journal
