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.
Julie is not prepared, however, for all the changes that she finds. Her father has forsaken many of the old Eskimo 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?

With the third novel in her Julie of the Wolves series, George takes a bold step, focusing on the wolf pack and leaving people on the periphery. The result is a well-researched and imaginative book that will fascinate some readers but may not appeal to those who want more of the human element. The story follows Julie's pack for several years, giving readers a vivid sense of how wolves live in their environment, what experiences they revel in, what conventions they maintain, and how they deal with threats. The lack of a clear, central conflict and resolution gives the narrative a diffuse quality. When Kapu, the main character through most of the book, is captured by researchers, readers may feel as lost as the other wolves, since the narrative continues following the pack rather than Kapu. His return to the wild at the end of the book brings the longest of several scenes in which Julie appears. Julie and her family are idealized here, and their speech has a wooden quality. Wendell Minor contributes several double-page illustrations, seen here only as preliminary sketches, and a very effective painting for the jacket. Category: Middle Readers. 1997, HarperCollins, $14.95 and $14.89. Gr. 5-7. This book has won the ABC Children's Booksellers Choices Award Winner 1998 Middle Grade Readers United States.
