ABOUT LUMI AND THE WOLF

When I met the wolf for the first time, I had no idea that within a week I'd walk a hundred kilometres to save his life...When Lumi arrives in Lapland, her aunt and uncle warn her of the wild white wolf. But when Lumi meets him and learns he's being hunted, she decides to do whatever it takes to save his life. With the help of local boy Oskár, she sets off on a perilous quest across snowy fells to reach the national park where Wolf will be safe.

To survive, Lumi must trust the things that make her who she is: her sharp senses, the patterns she sees in the forests, and her fierce determination - before the hunters catch up. An unforgettable story of friendship, bravery and belonging, by an award-winning Finnish neurodivergent storyteller. Beautifully illustrated with pages from Lumi's Forest Diary.

Perfect for readers 8-12+.
