ABOUT THIS BOOK Welcome to Big Sky Mountain: a home for everyone! There is never a dull day on Big Sky Mountain! Rain or shine, there is always something that needs doing. Rosa and Grandma Nan are busy building a bigger cabin when a storm strikes, and a host of animals descend for shelter. There is one unexpected visitor: a tiny wolf cub. This little wolf doesn't seem like the scary, giant-fanged forest wolves that Rosa has heard about! Can the cub really be part of their pack? Rosa and Grandma Nan set off into the forest to find out . . . OUR REVIEW My youngest and I were very excited when we received Alex Milway's latest children's books as we have loved his previous stories before, and BIG SKY MOUNTAIN THE FOREST WOLVES is no exception. Just as Rosa and Grandma Nan are starting to build a bigger cabin so Rosa can have more space, a huge storm hits the mountain and everyone must take cover together, including some quirky animals who trust Nan and Rosa. It' s been a long time since wolves were spotted where they live but they soon see a little wolf cub that might need some help. Even though wolves are supposed to be scary and dangerous, this won't stop Nan and Rosa from helping an animal in distress so they set off into the forest to see for themselves. Aged for kids 5-8, this book is the perfect size with a great blend of text and illustrations to hold their interest. My youngest is obsessed with animals and mixed with an adventure in the woods made this a perfect story for him. The idea of not judging a book by its cover is subtly woven throughout this tale, as is acceptance and caring for each other, which makes this children's book even more special. It's always such a pleasure when your child finishes reading a book and asks if there is another one in the series, so we are looking forward to the next Big Sky Mountain installment already!
