“Wolfproof” is especially recommended for school and community library Science Fiction & Fantasy collections., November 5, 2006

Reviewer: Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) – See all my reviews

Enhanced with thirteen black-and-white illustrations by John Murphy, award winning poet, author and teacher Maureen McQuerry’s “Woolfproof” is the story of Timothy James, Sarah and Jessica, three ordinary middle school children who, with the assistance of a mysterious old woman and a magical wolf, find themselves battling with an ancient one-eyed evil from the world of Celtic mythology and the legend of the Wild Hunt. This adventure fantasy for young readers is a superbly crafted entertainment that will engage the attention of children from beginning to end. “Wolfproof” is especially recommended for school and community library Science Fiction & Fantasy collections.
