The Race Is On opens straight where Sink Or Swim left off. Gwen and nine other contestants are about to start a grueling cross-country challenge with the winner having a wish granted.
The Race Is On is another faced-paced story filled with half and full-page visually engaging illustrations.
I liked that this story had a bit more substance which will have readers thinking and learning in a subtle way.
The Race Is On sees the nine contestants pitted against each other through a challenging, and at times life threatening, cross country run. Gwen always shows good sportsmanship but there are others that will do anything to win. When another contestant finds themself in serious trouble Gwen cannot turn her back and stops to help. The other contestants see this and begin to work as a team. But only one can win? During the course Gwen battles with this dilemma and also the question of what her wish will be if she wins.
Gwen is a wonderful role model, considerate, forgiving and smart. The search for her parents continues as Gwen and her canine friends move on to a new adventure.
Wolf Girl is a series that needs to be read in order as it is an ongoing story and there is no backstory included.

Gwen’s sister is an enemy commander, but has she turned against Gwen? This book of the Wolf Girl series answers some of those questions while Gwen suffers through the challenges on behalf of Hookville.

I loved how at first she found her sister but didn’t know if she should be mad or sad. I also liked that at first everyone was being mean to each other but in the end they got along together well

Waiting for the next book. This book is a new fave out of the series. I love the action and twists. Again in typical Anh Do style it was left on a cliff hanger lol
