Summary: An Amazing Tale of a Eskimo Girl Adapting to the Wild
Review: This book is amazingly good. It is a tale about an Eskimo girl named Miyax, or Julie surviving in the wild. She meets a pack of wolves and learns how to talk to them. Thoughout the tale Miyax realizes that what she was looking for was all wrong and what she finds where she is is better than anything else.

Summary: Sends the Wrong Message
Review: I found the ending of this book quite disturbing. For most of the novel, the author portrays the arctic environment in general and wolves specifically in a sensitive manner. However, in the final pages, Julie's father kills the hero wolf by shooting it from an airplane. The author concludes by essentially shrugging the whole thing off. Julie and her dad reunite, and what happened to the wolf (who had saved her life) is depicted as something that's too bad but cannot be helped. Further, it is suggested that this is the way things are going to be and that's that. A bad ending and a bad environmental message to send to young readers.

Summary: To go or to not to go!!!!!!!!!
Review: Julie of the Wolves When Miyax was very young her mother died and she was sent to live with her aunt. At the age of thirteen she had to get married and live with her husband Daniel and his parents. She ran away because Daniel mistreated her. While trying to find her way to San Francisco, California She got lost in the wilderness. She lived with the wolves in the tundra and became part of their family.
She wanted to live with her pen pal Am. Amy called her Julie. Miyax found a bird and named it Tornait, spirit of the birds. One day the hunters killed Amaroq the leader of the wolves. She decided to live in the tundra. They told her Kapugen, her father was still alive. Miyax wanted to live with her father, but founds out that he lived a new life style, not the Eskimo way. Will she go back or stay with the wolves?
I think Miyax was smart because she made a name for each wolf cub. Like Sister, Jello, and Kapu. I also think she's very smart because she studied the wolves' movements and learned enough to be accepted in the pack. Amaroq is a very good leader. Also a row model for the cubs like Kapu. Because when Amaroq died Kapu became leader.
I really liked this book. Because it shows how far Miyax would go to get a better life. I also liked it because it talks about wolves, and how each wolf is different from each other. I recommend this book to any body that likes animals. Specially wolves, or dogs.

Summary: A Profoundly Sad Story with an Important Message
Review: I found this to be a profoundly sad and moving story about culture, identity, survival, and "what truly matters" in life. I disagree with those who have said that if you're an animal lover, you won't like it. I am an animal lover, and I thought this was a profoundly pro-animal book. The wolves who befriend Julie and help her survive become her friends in the truest sense; the ending is sad and tragic *because* we have come to love the wolves with her. I think the book has a strong message about the importance of respecting and living in harmony with nature. Although I read this book many years ago, I still remember it, and I gave it to my animal-lover niece when she was about 11. She loved it, too.

Summary: A book with a shamanistic theme
Review: I love this book because the theme is realistic. It's about a girl who finds a niche with a wolf pack. After studying them for a while at a distance, she becomes one of them. The story is heartwarming and,to me, shows that humans and animals can help and understand each other.

Summary: THE BEST WOLF NOVEL EVER!!!
Review: This book is great if your a wolf lover like me. If you aren't, then you can try it, but most say that it was boring. If you say that its digusting, then your just not mature enough to handle it then. Not to give a wrong intention though, because even little toddlers can be mature enough to handle this book. Great to read. It gets exiting in the end-trust me. You should also read Julie, and Julies Wolf Pack, its a series and they're the next(and last) two.

Summary: Two thumbs down!
Review: This was an awful book. I couldn't even finish it. It was endlessly boring. I gave up trying to like it after she ate the wolf's digested meat. Gross, uninteresting... skip this one.
