Book description
Michael Morpurgo has created a sweeping and dramatic story in the
time of Bonnie Prince Charlie. This spellbinding tale is complemented
perfectly by Michael Foreman's illustrations.
Robbie McLeod and a wolf cub, both orphaned, venture far from their
birthplace, a land of rebellious fighters and vicious redcoats. There
is little constancy in Robbie's adventurous life, save for the
companionship of his wolf. But when at last Robbie finds a place where
he can peacefully make his home, he knows in his heart that the wolf
must find his own natural home too . . .
Michael Morpurgo is one of today's most popular and critically
acclaimed children's writers, author of KENSUKE'S KINGDOM and THE WRECK
OF THE ZANZIBAR amongst many other titles. He has won a multitude of
prizes including the Children's Book Award, the Smarties Prize and the
