Description
An awe-inspiring fable woven in a forest, showing how nature gives back to those who watch over it, from award-winning creators Nadine Robert and Todd Stewart
In an icy, desolate forest, a mother wolf and her two pups are fighting to survive. The hunger that has plagued them for days has left them starved for food-and starved for options. When the trio takes sudden notice of a raven on their tail, the mother wolf compels her little pack to follow where the bird is attempting to lead them. The path may be unexpected, but this new journey will soon reveal to them the ways in which the forest tends to the needs of its own. From award-winning creators Nadine Robert and Todd Stewart, Mother Wolf is an epic yet reassuring tale that shows us how generous nature can be to those who care for it and protect it.
