The Wolf Pup -- Etua Snowball, Hardcover

Etua Snowball shares his childhood experience with the unlikeliest of friend--an Arctic wolf pup that he meets at a remote camp where the boy spends his summers. As the child and the pup become more comfortable with one another, they go hunting, walking, exploring, and catching butterflies together across the tundra. With the end of summer approaching, the young boy knows he must soon return home. Will he gain enough trust from the pup to be able to pet it before he leaves?
