Hear the Wolves by Victoria Scott is a thrilling survival adventure for middle grade readers about courage, teamwork, and facing the wild.
Since her mother left, Sloan has been afraid of being abandoned. Living in a remote Alaskan town, she prefers the safety of staying inside—until one fateful hunting trip goes wrong. When a sudden blizzard traps Sloan and a group of townspeople in the wilderness, they must fight to survive not only the freezing cold but also a pack of hungry wolves stalking them through the snow.
As the danger mounts, Sloan discovers strength and bravery she didn’t know she had. Combining suspense, emotional growth, and heart-pounding action, Hear the Wolves is perfect for fans of Hatchet by Gary Paulsen and The Wild Robot by Peter Brown.
