Bookroo's summary

Little Wolf eagerly awaits his first moonlit howl, guided by Big Wolf's traditional ways. But when his moment arrives, an unexpected twist unleashes a wild, joyful melody. Can Little Wolf embrace his unique voice and defy convention? Discover a heartwarming tale of individuality and the courage to sing your own song.

From the publisher

Some may favor the proper way to howl, but what if you have a song in your heart that needs to come out? A delightful, disarmingly funny tale for little and big wolves everywhere.

Little Wolf can hardly wait. Tonight he will howl at the moon to the top of the sky. First, Big Wolf demonstrates traditional howling form: AAAAAAAAAAOOOOOooooooooo. Then it’s Little Wolf’s turn. He’s sure he is ready, but when the big moment comes, something happens. Something unexpected, something wild, something unbe-beep-bop-believable! Sisters Laura McGee Kvasnosky and Kate McGee have created a wonderful story about the importance of doing things your own way and being true to your heart when it swells with wildness and joy.
