The Wolf Wilder by Katherine Rundell 9-11

VIEW IN EDSHED

A ‘wolf wilder’ is the opposite of an animal tamer: they are a person who teaches tame animals to fend for themselves, to fight, to run and to be wary of humans.  Set in the snowbound woods of Russia, you will find Feodora and her mother here.  Feodora’s mother is a wolf wilder and Feo is a wolf wilder in training.

The murderous hostility of the Russian Army threatens their peaceful existence in the woods and they are left with no option except to go on the run.  What follows is a story of revolution and adventure, fighting for the things you love and wolves – many wolves.
