Words can't do justice in a review of this book. I smiled, I cried, my heart sang and wept along with Wild Child's as he suffered unthinkable horror in Russia in the 90's when he lost his mother and was left to fend for himself in the streets. Bobbie Pyron does a masterful job weaving a story of transition from respectable young 5-year-old to feral, protective dog pack leader and back again. Fabulous story and a rare 5-star review. This might be too much for tender hearts in the target audience (8-12 year old middle grade readers; I'm not sure my 11-year-old daughter would like it) but at 40-something I simply adored this story. And yes, I am a dog lover, through and through. Would folks who are not fond of dogs like this? probably not.
