A sparkling story of friendship, set in the snowy Arctic, from the
bestselling creators of The Lion Inside.
Stubborn wolf cub Wilf doesn't want help from anyone. Not from his
friends or his family. Whatever it is, he can do it all by himself. But
when Wilf finds himself lost and alone in the chill of the Arctic
night, he discovers something important: sometimes we all need the
helping hand of a friend.
This positive rhyming story is perfect for stubbornly independent
little cubs everywhere!

Calvin is in foster care, and he wants to trust someone, anyone,
but is afraid to open his heart. He has lived in a lot of houses,
but he still hasn't found his home. When he moves in with Maggie,
she shows him respect, offers him kindness, and makes him see
things in himself that he's never noticed before. Maybe this isn't
just another house, maybe this is a place Calvin can call home, for
a while.
Jody just can't bring himself to throw hard, so the ball usually falls short of its mark. Taunts of "catcher's got a glass arm" echo in his ears. Then injury is added to insult when he's beaned by a wild pitch—and suddenly he's having trouble hitting as well as throwing. What good is a ball player who's afraid of the ball?
