Here is the fascinating true story of the wolves who restored the ecosystem at Yellowstone National Park, written by Catherine Barr.
In the 1930s, the last wolves disappeared from Yellowstone National Park.
Without them, elk herds overran the plains. Bears starved, rabbit families shrunk, and birds flew away to new homes. Then plants and trees started to die off, too—even the flow of rivers was affected.
Could the park be saved . . . by the wolves it had lost?
After years of planning, in 1995 a team of experts was ready to find out. They carefully relocated fourteen wolves from the Canadian Rockies to Yellowstone. This is the story of their homecoming.
Engaging, informative, and hopeful, The Wolves of Yellowstone shows us that every creature plays a role in sustaining a thriving ecosystem.

Recensioni della critica
A rich nonfiction picture book that perfectly highlights the interconnectedness of the natural world . . . . Any lover of nature and science should find plenty to absorb within.
Artful writing and comprehensive research combine in this wide-ranging, lyrical picture book about returning wolves to the Yellowstone ecosystem. Desmond’s soft but poignant illustrations set a strong tone, with soulful portraits of individual wolves, vast landscapes of mountains and meadows, and scenes of wolves ranging through the habitat.
[A] remarkable story . . . illustrated with understated elegance.
Wildlife-abundant watercolors and labeled vignettes that use straightforward prose combine to give this natural history narrative a nature journal’s feel. . . . An excellent resource for teaching about the interrelatedness of ecosystems and keystone species.
The book is brilliantly illustrated with detailed watercolor pictures. Descriptions draw readers into the setting, where they will learn all about the biodiversity of Yellowstone National Park and what scientists have learned about the ecosystem.
Desmond’s graceful watercolors of the animals in summer and winter landscapes give a sense of the breadth and diversity of nature in the protected spaces of the American West.
Compelling and visually exciting. . . . Beautiful watercolor illustrations are as mesmerizing as the fact-filled and dramatic narration. (Jan Aldrich Solow)
