Wolf Brother

by Michelle Paver

This exciting fast-paced novel is an engaging depiction of a young boy's life during Neolithic times. This fictional account includes details based on archeological evidence of tool use, clothing, and other details of everyday life during the Stone Age. The main character loses his father in a 'demonic' animal attack, so is left alone to face the harsh realities of survival without the benefit of family or 'clan'. He befriends an orphaned wolf, and soon finds there is more to his relationship with the young wolf than he could have imagined. A special bond develops, and they care for and protect each other as the boy finds himself on a quest to save himself, and his new friend.
