Julie of the Wolves, by Jean Craighead George, ISBN # 0-06-440058-1

This fascinating Newberry Winner, is a realistic journey into Eskimo life. Protagonist, Julie runs away from a arranged marriage, gets lost and is cared for by wolves. By reading this book, I learned a lot about wolf behavior, and how difficult it is to live in the Artic. This is a very engaging story in which Julie has to decide to live the ways of the Eskimo or the ways of the White man.
