When Abby Maddox's grandfather swears he saw Bigfoot in the woods behind his Portland, Oregon, home, his neighbors decide to bring in a prominent anthropologist to prove him wrong. Rather than see her grandpa made a laughing stock, Abby sets out to send the professor packing...until she sees how hot he is. Roark Wallace can't risk having tourists comb the woods for Bigfoot-not with a local pack of werewolves to protect. When Roark meets Abby, sparks fly-but can he pursue this fiery red-head without compromising his pack?

Newbery Medalist Jean Craighead George lovingly tells the story of three wolf pups--from the moment they open their eyes to the time they lead the hunt. Lyrical passages in her wolf pup diary describe how the pups tumble and play and when they first learn to howl and talk wolk talk. Readers are reminded of the changes in nature that are happening in the lower 48 states as they "look to the north" to watch the wolf pups grow. Jean George's words and Lucia Washburn's breathtaking paintings give the reader a rare glimpse of one of nature's noblest creatures: the wolf.

Photographer Jeff Richter is a long-practiced observer of nature who sees through the lens of his camera and brings both immense technical skills and an abiding love of the northwoods to his work. As a result, Seasons of the North is an all-encompassing journal. Richter's photographs reveal the audacious declarations of wild cherry blossoms in late spring, the solitary, purposeful stalking of the gray wolf, the brooding, cloud-choked aftermath of a summer storm, the frenzied festival of fall foliage, and the austere decorations of snow and ice in winter.This collection of photographs, Richter's first in book form, is a testament to one man's patience, appreciation, and reverence--and his ability to convey the beauty of each season to those who share his appreciation.Noted Wisconsin naturalist writers have contributed essays on the seasons: John Bates on the agonies and ecstacies of northern spring "If Fish Could Sing"; Justin Isherwood on the irresistable lure of water in summer "A Canoe-Shaped Soul"; Chad McGrath on the sensuous delights of fall "The Siren's Song"; and Terry Daulton on winter's stark beauty "Just Beyond the Doorstep".
