In this pet adoption story that's as laugh-out-loud funny as it is heart-tugging, a dog who insists she's a wolf finds the perfect home with a young girl who sees past her prickly personality.

When a particularly growly pup finds herself in an animal shelter, she insists that she is a wolf—a lone wolf. After all, she's not sweet, she's not cute, and she is just fine on her own! Luckily, there's one little girl at the shelter who knows that sometimes, good dogs act bad when they feel afraid, and that extending a little kindness can help even the most wolfish pup at the pound let down her guard.

I Am a Wolf by Kelly Leigh Miller is a charming tale about understanding and compassion, perfect for readers who enjoy heartwarming stories with a dash of humour.
