DEEP IN THE Minnesota forest, where only the strong survive, four regular-sized pupsâLeader, Sniffer, Runner, and Thinkerâare pushed into the world. Then one last, very small pup is born into the wolf pack. He is called Runt. From the very start, Runt struggles in the harsh wild world of the wolves. He tries learning along with his brothers and sisters, but makes serious mistakes. Itâs hard pleasing his father, King, and the other wolves. If only Runt could prove himself to his powerful father and family. . . .âWith an economy of words, Bauer precisely and vividly conveys the wolvesâ wild world. . . . Thereâs a ready-made audience for this.ââBooklist, StarredâBeautifully written and faithful to wolvesâ behavior (explained in an afterword). . . . Bauer portrays the wolvesâ place in the natural world with compassion, respect, and warmth, but this is also the story of any unique individualâs struggle to find his or her niche.ââSchool Library Journal
