Sinossi
I soffialupi sono quasi impossibili da scoprire. Visti da fuori sembrano più o meno persone normali. Certo, ci sono degli indizi: è assai facile che manchi loro un pezzo di dito, il lobo di un orecchio, una o due dita dei piedi. Perché un soffialupi è il contrario di un domatore: accoglie un lupo cresciuto in cattività e gli insegna a vivere di nuovo tra i boschi, a ululare, ad ascoltare il richiamo della foresta. Feo è una di loro, proprio come la sua mamma, e da sempre vive tra boschi perennemente bianchi di neve, avvolta nel profumo di legna e di pelliccia. Non tutti però amano i lupi, e ancor meno chi li aiuta a tornare selvaggi. E così, quando la mamma viene incarcerata ingiustamente, Feo non ci sta, e corre a salvarla. Età di lettura: da 12 anni.

Quite possibly one of the darker middle grades I have read, with gorgeous atmosphere and a beautiful relationship between humans and animals at its core, this is such a great read. Also, the illustrations also add to the impact of the book.
"Stories can start revolutions." The Wolf Wilder was one of my most anticipated books of 2015. I refused to read my early copy as I wanted to wait to see Gelrev Ongbico's divine illustrations . And it was well worth the wait. I cannot decide which cover for The Wolf Wilder I love the most; it's a
Feodora and her mother live deep in the woods in Russia, they are wolf wilders, they untame wolves kept as fashionable pets by wealthy Russians. This story had a fairytale feel and there were some enjoyable parts reminiscent of the Snow Queen, the inhospitable landscape and the journey to rescue a l Leggi tutto
This book makes me feel ten years old again. Every time I read a Katherine Rundell book I wonder why I ever spend time reading anything else. Her writing style is so unique and stunning I could probably recognise it from one sentence. Every word is a treasure, and her concepts are so original and di Leggi tutto
