Praise for Book 1 in the series

"An inspiring read for any child who loves the natural world."--ROSANNE PARRY, NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLING AUTHOR OF A WOLF CALLED WANDER

Raised by his adoptive father, Wolf 21 has become one of Yellowstone's most famous wolves. As leader of the Druid pack, he's known for his bravery, his kindness, and his commitment to his mate--the equally impressive Wolf 42. Together, they are a couple the likes of which the park has never seen.

Then there's Wolf 302: a flirt who avoids fights, naps during conflicts, and begs for food instead of hunting. When the trouble-making rebel starts hanging around the Druids, 21 and 42 try to drive him away, but 302 keeps coming back, and, little by little, begins to grow out of his immature ways. But is it enough? Does 302 have what it takes to become an alpha like the greats who came before him?

Drawing on Rick McIntyre's work with the wolves of Yellowstone and told in an engaging style that brilliantly captures the real-life drama of the wolves' lives, A Time of Legends is a powerful story of redemption and transformation.
