I loved listening to A Wolf Called Fire, the narrator- Kirby Heyborne did a great job bringing the characters to life with his voice. I would definitley look for more audiobooks narrated by Kirby Heyborne in the future!

Now for the story, I have to preface my review by stating that this is the first story by Rossane Parry that I have read and I have become an instant fan of hers!!! The story was absolutely amazing and there were so many moments in the story that had me anxious, wondering whats going to be happen next. I can honestly see this book becoming a movie and getting the same success as the Wild Robot (I really hope this book gets picked up to be a movie).

I have been recommending this book to customers who enjoy the One and Only Ivan, Wild Robot, and Silverwing and will be adding this book as my staff pick with the following blurb:

This book will have you at the edge of your seat as you follow Warm and his pack and the trials that they face protecting their home on the mountain. This book is a great reminder that the best leader isn't the biggest or strongest person but the one who shows compassion, patience and trust. The best part is that the main character is based on a real wolf named Wolf 8. Curious? You'll have to read the book to learn more!

The perfect book for readers who have enjoyed the One and Only Ivan, Wild Robot or Silverwing.

Another great story from Rosanne Parry. I always love reading these books because I manage to learn something new each time. I love the pack that Warm was able to create; it was built with love, compassion, and understanding. I hope that Rosanne continues to write these heart-warming animal stories because I will keep reading them.

Kirby Heyborne did a great job narrating this story. I look forward to listening to more of Kirby's work in the future.

This book makes an excellent addition to the Voices of the Wilderness series. Although, in the audiobook format it is sad that readers miss the wonderful illustrations that grace the pages of these books, the audiobook is well done. The narrator is engaging and brings the story to life very well! I'd recommend young readers pair the physical book and the audiobook for an optimum reading experience.

My boys and I read A Wolf Called Wander, and I was able to make connections between Swift and Warm. This is similar, in that Warm also gets separated from his pack and goes on a journey. However, as it is based on another true story, in this follow up, he chooses to lead as a respectful member of the pack who allows all members to have a voice. He doesn't bully or shun.

The special attributes that the wolves cultivate allow readers to learn important lessons about belonging to a team and leading by example. I was very excited to see this version on audiobook so my boys and I could listen in the car.

Following a wolf from puppyhood onward as he and his pack face insurmountable odds, A Wolf Called Fire is an excellent middle-grade novel. Kids will be so excited about this book, much like her prior books. Be prepared to laugh, cry, and feel for these lovely creatures. It is also very timely with the wildfires.

There is a strong conservation message within this title and kids are even given ways to help.

This is a great addition to libraries that are equipped to lend audiobooks. It is difficult in my elementary school because of availability of devices. I would recommend the book to all ages though!

Thank you to Net Galley, Harper AudioChildren's Books, and Greenwillow Books for the DLC! All opinions are my own.
