Book Description
Sal heeft geleerd waarom Josh haar zo lang geleden heeft verlaten zonder enige uitleg. Het is niet precies wat ze dacht dat het zou zijn en in haar gedachten was het een andere vrouw of een commitmentprobleem. Wat ze in plaats daarvan leert, is dat hij een weerwolf is, een man die eenmaal per maand bij volle maan in dit wezen verandert. In plaats van ervoor te schuwen, omhelsde ze het en vroeg hem zelfs om haar in een van hen te veranderen. Hij was aanvankelijk terughoudend, maar uiteindelijk werd haar doorzettingsvermogen beloond en werden ze meer dan alleen een stel ... ze werden een gezin. Ze hadden geen idee dat een man naar hen keek terwijl ze zich voor het eerst kleedden, pronkend met haar babybultje en het bos introkken voor haar eerste jacht. Josh was erg geheimzinnig over zijn verleden en zelfs over zijn gezinsleven. Sal denkt dat hij iets voor haar verbergt en heeft het op zich genomen om in zijn stamboom te graven. Josh daarentegen is van mening dat het verleden moet worden gelaten waar het is en hij wil nooit meer over zijn familie of het verleden spreken. Helaas hebben deze dingen de neiging om op de verkeerde momenten hun lelijke kop op te steken. Zijn liefde voor haar zal op de proef worden gesteld wanneer ze hem verraadt en een lang verloren familielid bij hen thuis brengt. Het wordt een zus genaamd Sheila, een vrouw die al heel lang op zoek is naar haar broer. Het is een gespannen relatie tussen de twee en hoewel Sal nieuwsgierig is naar hun familie, wil niemand erover praten. Als ze dacht dat weerwolf worden haar grootste obstakel zou worden, zou ze ontdekken dat Josh veel meer inhoudt dan alleen de verandering op volle maan. De man die hen heeft gevolgd, wordt onthuld en wat is zijn probleem met Josh? Is hij iemand om gevreesd of omarmd te worden? Heeft hij alleen het belang van Josh voor ogen of gaan zijn gevoelens voor hem dieper dan dat? Dit zijn de vragen die zullen worden beantwoord en tegen het einde ervan zal een nieuwe ope

Book Description
Firekeeper has always believed that her heart is a wolf’s heart. Now the time has come for her to prove it. Blind Seer’s search for a teacher of the magical arts brought him and Firekeeper to Rhinadei, a land rich in magical lore, but intolerant of those who would rebel against its core precepts. Now, eager to aid Wythcombe, his new teacher, Blind Seer agrees to lend his keen senses to the hunt for Kabot—Wythcombe’s childhood rival and leader of a band of fanatical blood mages. In this hunt, Firekeeper runs as ever at Blind Seer’s side. Rounding out their pack are Laria and Ranz, two young humans with potent magical gifts of their own; Farborn, a yarimaimalom falcon; Wythcombe himself, and the ever enigmatic Meddler. Yet, despite the versatility of this pack, Kabot’s blood mages miraculously elude them, leaving behind the tantalizing scent of more power than they should possess. Suspicion builds that Kabot has acquired a new ally: an ally who may be one of their own pack turned traitor. “A beautiful and complex book.” Publisher’s Weekly on Through Wolf’s Eyes “Thrilling.” Publisher’s Weekly on Wolf Hunting “Intricately plotted, A thought-provoking tale of magic and politics, enlivened by Firekeeper’s wry and wolfish point-of-view.” Publisher’s Weekly on Wolf’s Blood

Book Description
Sal has learned why Josh left her so long ago without any explanation. It’s not exactly what she thought it would be and in her mind it was another woman or a commitment issue. What she learns instead is that he is a werewolf, a man that turns into this creature once a month during the full moon. Instead of shying away from it, she embraced it and even asked him to change her into one of them. He was reluctant at first, but eventually her persistence paid off and they became more than just a couple...they became a family. They had no idea that a man was watching them as they changed for the first time, showing off her baby bump and moving into the woods for her first hunt. Josh has been very secretive about his past and even family life. Sal believes that he is hiding something from her and has taken it upon herself to dig into his family tree. Josh on the other hand feels that the past should be left where it is and never wants to speak of his family or of the past again. Unfortunately, these things tend to raise their ugly head at the wrong moments. His love for her will be tested when she betrays him and brings to their doorstep a long lost family member. It will be a sister named Sheila, a woman that has been searching for her brother for a very long time. It is a strained relationship between the two of them and even though Sal pries about their family, neither one is willing to speak of it. If she thought that becoming a werewolf was going to be her biggest obstacle, she is about to find out that there is a lot more to Josh than just the change on the full moon.

Picturing the Wolf in Children's Literature
Author: Debra Mitts-Smith
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1135765715
Category : Literary Criticism
Languages : en
Pages : 222
Book Description
From the villainous beast of “Little Red Riding Hood” and “The Three Little Pigs,” to the nurturing wolves of Romulus and Remus and Rudyard Kipling’s The Jungle Book, the wolf has long been a part of the landscape of children’s literature. Meanwhile, since the 1960s and the popularization of scientific research on these animals, children’s books have begun to feature more nuanced views. In Picturing the Wolf in Children’s Literature, Mitts-Smith analyzes visual images of the wolf in children’s books published in Western Europe and North America from 1500 to the present. In particular, she considers how wolves are depicted in and across particular works, the values and attitudes that inform these depictions, and how the concept of the wolf has changed over time. What she discovers is that illustrations and photos in works for children impart social, cultural, and scientific information not only about wolves, but also about humans and human behavior. First encountered in childhood, picture books act as a training ground where the young learn both how to decode the “symbolic” wolf across various contexts and how to make sense of “real” wolves. Mitts-Smith studies sources including myths, legends, fables, folk and fairy tales, fractured tales, fictional stories, and nonfiction, highlighting those instances in which images play a major role, including illustrated anthologies, chapbooks, picture books, and informational books. This book will be of interest to children’s literature scholars, as well as those interested in the figure of the wolf and how it has been informed over time.
