Julie's return home creates a conflict between the wolves she knows and the musk oxen her village now depends on for income. Predator behavior, herd protection, and competing human needs make ecology the problem she must understand rather than scenery around the sequel.
The science inside
- Animals & Zoology
- Ecosystems
- Conservation
Your child will meet:
- Predators, grazing animals, and people can depend on the same landscape in conflicting ways.
- Protecting livestock or managed herds can create difficult wildlife-management decisions.
- A conservation problem often includes ecological evidence, community needs, and more than one stakeholder.

Parent effort: Quick discussion
The acclaimed sequel to the beloved Newbery Medal-winning Julie of the Wolves, this classic middle grade novel is an excellent choice for tween readers.
Julie's decision to return home to her people is not an easy one. But after many months in the wilderness, living in harmony with the wolves that saved her life, she knows the time has come.
But Julie is not prepared for all the changes that she finds. Her father has forsaken many of the old Inuit traditions. He has given up his sled dogs for a snowmobile, and now looks after the musk oxen that serve as the village's income. He will do anything to protect them--even shoot any wolves that might threaten the herd.
Julie knows that, like her father, she must find a way to reconcile the old ways with the new. But how can she do that without putting her beloved wolves in danger?
