Howling Yowling Growling with the Lost River Wolf Pack introduces children to the wolf of northern Minnesota, a highly intelligent, playful animal, devoted to its family or pack. The book is divided into five episodes, each describing a day in the life of an individual wolf. It explains how the wolves raise their young, coordinate hunting, form friendships, feed the pups and elderly wolves, and joyfully play together, embracing a culture of cooperative living similar in many ways to the human family. Readers meet Kohanamaku, the alpha wolf and leader of the pack; his brother Bonga, the beta wolf who is second in command; Shuggy, a cousin who loves flowers; Sensor, the omega wolf who babysits the pups and acts as court jester; and Argon, a lone wolf. They also meet the pups, Mitey, Louie, and Blossom, their mother Danita, the alpha female wolf; and grandpa wolf Mahlon, the retired alpha. The episodes show how the wolves handle imminent danger from hunters and trappers surviving through their quick thinking. Winner of the 2016 Purple Dragonfly Honorable Mention.
