Customer Reviews

Great book

Stella and her mom find out that one of the newly introduced wolves has been killed. By a gunshot wound. This means that someone is hunting where they aren't supposed to be. Will Stella and her mom find out who before it's too late?

A great story about the love of animals

The book is about a 9 yr old girl named Stella who helps her mother and aunt Anya in a variety of animal situations. She must help rescue a piglet from a well, perform surgery on a goldfish, help vaccinate cattle, treat a colt who was bitten by a rattlesnake and rescue wolf pups after Romeo, the Wolf Cubs father is killed by hunters. This is a book that keeps you interested with all the many things the girl and her family go through with the animals. It teaches many things about a variety of animals. It has such a compassionate depth from all the characters, it brings to heart an inner urgency to help the animals you come in contact with. It is enjoyable and very well written for all ages. I felt the content was a little much for the younger advanced reader, but it never would scare them.
