Features a map and extensive backmatter, as well as humorous comic panels.

She has taught writing at schools, conferences, educational nonprofits, and online at the Loft Literary Center and works as an independent bookseller. She and her family live in an old farmhouse in Portland, Oregon. She writes in a tree house in her backyard.
A true story from world-renowned wolf researcher Rick McIntyre and award-winning author David A. Poulsen. The Unlikely Hero shares the action and adventure story of one of Yellowstone’s most famous animals, Wolf 8: a runt of the litter who became a powerful alpha wolf.
