The acclaimed sequel to the beloved Newbery Medal–winning Julie of the Wolves, this classic middle grade novel is an excellent choice for tween readers.
Julie's decision to return home to her people is not an easy one. But after many months in the wilderness, living in harmony with the wolves that saved her life, she knows the time has come.
But Julie is not prepared for all the changes that she finds. Her father has forsaken many of the old Inuit traditions. He has given up his sled dogs for a snowmobile, and now looks after the musk oxen that serve as the village's income. He will do anything to protect them—even shoot any wolves that might threaten the herd.
Julie knows that, like her father, she must find a way to reconcile the old ways with the new. But how can she do that without putting her beloved wolves in danger?
Don't miss any of the books in Jean Craighead George's groundbreaking series: Julie of the Wolves, Julie, and Julie's Wolf Pack.
"The author is a naturalist who has observed wolves at first hand. Her novel is packed with expert wolf lore, its narrative beautifully conveying the sweeping vastness of tundra as well as many other aspects of the Arctic, ancient and modern, animal and human."—New York Times

      In a starred review, PW praised the "breathtakingly clear prose" and "striking observations about Eskimo culture" in this "nearly perfect" sequel to the 1973 Newbery Medal-winning Julie of the Wolves. Ages 10-up.

      In this sequel to Julie of the Wolves, Julie returns to her home where she finds that her father has married an American. Julie must deal with the clash of Alaskan and American cultures, and she travels the tundra to save the wolves who saved her. Moore narrates perfectly, becoming Julie and deftly and subtly adjusting her voice to the characters and moods. This audio version may help listeners with Alaskan names and terms, which might be difficult to read. Middle school students will be enthralled with Moore's vivid descriptions of this adventure. Moore also narrates JULIE OF THE WOLVES from Recorded Books. D.D.G. (c)AudioFile, Portland, Maine
