Wolf Called Fire

Voice of the Wilderness #4

by Rosanne Parry, Mónica Armiño (Illustrator)

The stand-alone companion to Rosanne Parry’s New York Times bestseller A Wolf Called Wander tells the wilderness survival story of the wolf pup known as Warm and is illustrated in black and white throughout. This Voice of the Wilderness Novel features extensive back matter, including a map.

Warm is the smallest pup, the one his father calls the heart of the pack. But all Warm sees is his bigger brothers Sharp and Swift, even his sisters Pounce and Wag, winning all the wrestling matches. Just as Warm is finding his place, enemy wolves destroy and scatter the pack. Warm helps lead the pups away from the fight, only to find himself alone with four pups to defend and feed. Can he be both the heart and the head of a new pack? Does he have to choose the aggressive leadership style of his father and brothers? Or is there another way?

A Wolf Called Fire is a stand-alone companion novel to A Wolf Called Wander . It’s inspired by Wolf 8, a real Yellowstone wolf who was the smallest of his pack and constantly bullied by his bigger brothers. Wolf 8 survived a tumultuous first year and grew up to be a different sort of leader—one who fought many rival wolves to submission but never killed any. He had a rare talent for mentoring young wolves and became the patriarch of the largest and most successful pack in Yellowstone by choosing a more collaborative and generous leadership style. Features black-and-white illustrations throughout and extensive back matter, including a map.

About the author

Hey there,
I'm the author of several novels for young readers, including the NY Times best seller, A WOLF CALLED WANDER and A WHALE OF THE WILD. There is information about all my books on my website.
I write because I love the power of story to illuminate and uplift our world. I try to write things that are heartfelt and encourage conversation in families and classrooms. If you wanted to ask me a question or invite me to come speak at your school or library, I'd love that. There's a contact me area on my website

When I'm not writing I try to be an advocate for literacy and libraries whenever I can. I like to read (obviously) and hike and dance and go to the beach and play the harp and write in my treehouse.

Fans of A Wolf Called Wander (of which I am one) or of The Unlikely Hero: the story of Wolf 8 (of which I am also a huge fan!) will enjoy getting their hands on A Wolf Called Fire.

I look forward to recommending this one to middle graders. Especially fans of Erin Hunter.

Lovers of animal stories that reveal their real life behaviors, such as Parry’s A Whale in the Wild, A Horse Named Sky and this book’s predecessor, A Wolf Called Wander will be thrilled to get their hands on the story of Warm, a smaller pup in the Mountain pack. Parry’s Warm is left to lead young pups to safety after another pack invades their mountain and when the dust settles, finds that they are now alone with the rest of the pack either dead, forced to join the invaders or lost. Calling on everything he was taught by the older members of his family, Warm keeps them safe, finds several members of the Mountain pack and even leads one of the rival pack to join his slowly coalescing group. After successfully defeating rival pack, the Ice Wolves and leading his own through flames started from lightning strikes, Warm becomes Fire and takes them back to their mountain home.

Parry’s expressive language use creates such vivid images in readers’ minds and her creation of terms like “bounders” for rabbits and “fire sticks” for guns adds to the charm of all the Voice of the Wilderness books. And although the main characters are wolves, each member has a distinct personality that is reflected in their name and, as with human characters, various events cause many of them to undergo changes over time. Illustrations, done by Monica Armino who also illustrated A Wolf Called Wander so beautifully, are frequent and enhance the story perfectly. Any of this series would make a terrific class read aloud with opportunities to skills instruction sprinkled liberally throughout the book, serve as an effective literature circle choice or simply immerse an individual reader into the world of wolves. Extensive back matter covers Parry’s inspiration for this installment in the series as well as flora, fauna and prints of the forest ecosystem.

Highly recommended for libraries serving grades 3-6.

Thanks for the eARC, Edelweiss Above the Treeline.

This book is EVERYTHING. I was crying in the library because Fire found his family?? He made his own pack?? He did it not because he was the biggest or strongest but because he was himself??? And despite all this,,,,, WANDER IS STILL ALONE????

„Als die Wölfe fliehen mussten“ von Rosanne Parry, aus dem amerikanischen Englisch übersetzt von Uwe-Michael Gutzschahn und illustriert von Monica Armino, ist eine wie ich finde sehr berührende und spannende Tiergeschichte die weit mehr erzählt als nur vom Überlebenskampf in der Wildnis. Besonders emotional gepackt hat mich die Entwicklung des jungen Wolfes Flausch, der zunächst als das schwächste Mitglied seines Rudels erscheint. Zwischen seinen starken und selbstbewussten Geschwistern wirkt er erst einmal unscheinbar und eher wenig geeignet für die Herausforderungen des Wolfslebens, doch gerade darin liegt auch die große Stärke dieser Geschichte im Bezug auf Flauschs Entwicklung. Als das Rudel schließlich auseinandergerissen wird und Flausch plötzlich die Verantwortung für vier junge Welpen übernehmen muss, beginnt eine außergewöhnliche Reise auf der er seine Ängste, Zweifel und Unsicherheiten überwinden muss und machen ihn zu einer Figur, mit der ich sehr mitgefühlt, mitgebangt habe. Statt durch Kraft oder Kampfgeist zeichnet Flausch sich durch Fürsorge, Mut und sein unermüdliches Durchhaltevermögen aus und vermittelt dadurch, dass wahre Stärke sich oft dort zeigt, wo man sie am wenigsten erwartet.
Rosanne Parry gelingt es in meinen Augen hervorragend die Welt der Wölfe lebendig und authentisch darzustellen. Die Gefahren der Wildnis, die Herausforderungen bei der Nahrungssuche und die Bedeutung von Zusammenhalt innerhalb eines Rudels werden spannend und zugleich einfühlsam geschildert. Besonders gelungen finde ich, dass die Tiere nicht vermenschlicht wirken sondern ihre natürlichen Verhaltensweisen im Mittelpunkt stehen. Dazu kann man im angehängten Wissensteil auch noch sehr viel interessante Infos bekommen, was ich einen richtig tollen Zusatz im Buch finde!
Meiner Meinung nach lebt die Geschichte von ihren emotionalen Momenten und den detailreichen Naturbeschreibungen und Szenerien. Man begleitet Flausch auf jedem Schritt seines Weges und fiebert mit ihm mit wenn er schwierige Entscheidungen treffen oder sein Rudel beschützen muss. Seine Entwicklung vom ängstlichen Nachzügler zu einem verantwortungsbewussten Beschützer war für mich sehr bewegend und auch für meinen Sohn ein besonderes Leseerlebnis. Neben der Leserunde bei Lovelybooks habe ich das Buch nämlich gemeinsam mit ihm gelesen.
Mein Fazit: Eine ganz besondere Tiergeschichte für Groß und Klein mit wertvollen Botschaften, Mehrwert und gespickt mit wunderbaren Illustrationen und einem sehr interessanten Wissensteil im Anhang!

[Maura · Rating 5 out of 5]

Absolutely LOVED this newest installment in Parry's Voices of the Wilderness series. My now 12-year old son and I adored A Wolf Called Wander in audiobook version and he went on to devour the chapter book several times. The book even inspired us to change our 10-month road trip to visit the California Wolf Center and learn about their wolf conservation work. So we were SO excited about the release of this new book, and A Wolf Called Fire did not disappoint.

Parry has such a gift for capturing the voice of a pup and investing her audience with such emotional attachment to the pup that we soak up countless facts about wolf socialization and pack dynamics without realizing how much scientific knowledge we are learning. At times, I wanted to stop listening to the audiobook because the lives of wolves are so short and their survival is so perilous, and I loved Warm so much that I couldn't take the stress and heartbreak ahead of him. But his voice was so compelling that we couldn't stop listening.

I also loved the setting in Hell's Canyon and the surrounding native lands of the Nez Perce in Oregon and Idaho. The back matter was fascinating and made me want to go back to Oregon and Idaho to explore so much more.

Kids are going to love this book, and I fervently hope it will create more champions of wolf conservation and recovery. Highly recommended for elementary, middle, and even high school library collections.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for giving me an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review!

2.5 stars.

This is an objectively well written book, it is just not for me.

It was better than the first book in my opinion because there was more interaction and conversation between the wolves. Warm wasn’t alone for most of it like Wander was.

I liked Snow a lot! She was very brave to leave her original pack to be with Warm who was a lot kinder.

I liked the message of ‘you don’t have to be the biggest or fastest wolf to be the best.’ It’s encouraging for people to read to give them courage if they are feeling down about themselves.

I’m sad I didn’t see most of the artwork since that was my favorite part about the first book, but what was in the ARC was very beautiful! That really enhances the story so I’m glad illustrations are a part of the novel.

I like that there is a section about the real life tales of the wolf that was written about in this book, as well as the other facts about wolves and other aspects of nature in the back. It is very educational for kids who may read this. And for adults who may not know these things either!

If you really love the science behind nature and animals, this book is for you. If you are more of a casual lover of animals then you may find this a little boring.

Noa and I read this together, and we both give it 5 stars! Noa is obsessed with wolves and spotted this book at the school book fair, and I’m so glad we bought it. We loved it so much that we’ve already purchased Rosanne Parry’s other three books in the series. Highly recommend for young readers, especially animal lovers.

Listened to audiobook while driving through Yellowstone NP so that may have influenced the hype we felt over this book, but we all loved it. A story of overcoming despite all odds and the “little guy” coming out on top. All kids rated it 4.5-5 stars - per Emma loved it, would recommend, and would read it again so has to be 5 stars!

I started reading this a year ago with a student in our local "Book Buddies" program, but never finished it. I was able to find it through interlibrary loan and am so glad I did! It was excellent, not just the story, but all the background information the author provided about wolves. In my imagination or hopeful thinking, I may have seen Wolf #8 in Yellowstone NP, who was the model for a wolf called Fire.

[H.R.H. Carpathia · Rating 5 out of 5]

It is Warm's turn now, and what a wonderful adventure this is. It was great to see Swift/Wander again as well as learn what happened to his siblings. I think the only pack member whose fate remains unknown is Song. Perhaps we will get a story about her or one of Warm's sisters one day. I really like these books and I am glad I came across the story of this pack. If you like wolves and nature in general you should read these books. Yes, the wolves talk but it also a true to life tale with hunting and death and mentions of blood. To me, is is perfect for a child as these are just facts of life in the wild. Warm/Fire is my favorite in the pack and next are Quiver and Swift. However, I really like the entire family, including Snow.

5 stars. Mama wolf so kind & aware of Warm and his sense of yielding to his litter mates
Smallest & quietest
Lovely illustrations enhance story
Huckleberries!
Confrontations between wolves are just violent enough to portray what is happening, but not all the blood and gore
Great leadership can come from unexpected places. that wisdom can be more powerful than strength. and that generously nurturing the young makes the whole community stronger.
Based on Yellowstone wolf project research, great back matter
Wonder what animal will be next?

Thank you to Greenwillow Books and NetGalley for this e-ARC in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own.

This stand-alone companion to A Wolf Called Wander is based on a real-life wolf in Yellowstone National Park called Wolf 8. Warm is the smallest of his litter. His siblings hone their wrestling skills but Warm watches and learns. As their pack is attacked by the ice wolves, Warm leads his younger pup siblings away to safety. When Warm realizes that his pack is not coming back, he must become the leader and train his younger siblings how to hunt with respect to the land and to hide from the pack that destroyed his family. He was supposed to be the watcher but can he become the leader of the pack?

What a beautifully written story! I am looking forward to seeing the final copy as the digital ARC did not have the artwork. The story itself is not very long but there is a lot of information at the end about the wolves, the land terrain, the original people inhabiting that land, and how climate change is impacting it all. I would recommend this title for grades 3 and up.

Very sweet story about an underdog wolf fighting to protect his young pack. I appreciate that this story is inspired by a real wolf and I like that Parry included a snapshot of his story at the end. I also like the resources and information found at the end too. The story is sweet, engaging, and informative. The pictures really bring the story to life too, they are beautiful! Highly recommend this book.

Rating system:
1 star: the absolute worst and potentially DNF
2 stars: did not like and forgettable
3 stars: casually liked, not unique, and probably forgettable
4 stars: really liked, might reread
5 stars: phenomenal, will reread, will continue to think about

Author Rosanne Parry returns here to the close-knit lupine family who appeared in her first work of animal fiction, A Wolf Called Wander , this time telling the story of Warm, one of the five wolf cubs whose family is attacked and dispersed in that earlier book. Smaller and gentler than his litter mates, Warm seems destined to become a watcher like Growl, and as a yearling becomes involved in the care of his four younger siblings. When the pack is attacked, Warm leads the pups away on his mother's instructions, and finds himself in the unexpected role of leader. Tracking down Swift—his litter mate, and the hero of A Wolf Called Wander—he believes he has found the leader they need, only to be parted again. Now Warm must find a way to care for the pups, and lead them to safety. But how can one lone wolf protect and feed them, and what will he do when the ice wolves who destroyed his family come hunting for them...?

The fourth book in Parry's Voice of the Wilderness collection featuring engaging animal stories, and a direct follow-up to A Wolf Called Wander , A Wolf Called Fire is every bit and engrossing, entertaining and ultimately heartwarming as its predecessors. Like Wander in the earlier book, Warm is based on a real-life wolf, in this case Wolf 8, who was part of the group of wolves reintroduced at Yellowstone. Like the wolf who inspired him, Warm is atypical in some ways for a leader, being smaller and gentler, and less dominant in his treatment of others in his pack. But also like that real-life wolf, he has qualities—faithfulness, resourcefulness, the ability to work with a team and take each member's strengths into account, the willingness to meet each pack member's needs—that make for a successful alpha. Much as in the earlier books, I was rooting for Warm the entire time, and enjoyed seeing his journey from an insecure pup named Warm to a wise young leader called Fire. Also like the earlier books, I enjoyed the profuse illustrations here, contributed by Spanish artist Mónica Armiño, who likewise worked on A Wolf Called Wander , and I appreciated the informative section at the rear, with information about wolves, and the flora, fauna and geology of the mountain and prairie homes in Oregon where they live. Highly recommended to all young readers who enjoy animal fiction, as well as to anyone who read and enjoyed A Wolf Called Wander and the other books in the Voice of the Wilderness collection. I hope Parry continues to write other stories in this vein!

I've enjoyed all the animal books I've read by Rosanne Parry so far -- A Wolf Called Wander, A Whale of the Wild, and A Horse Named Sky. I was curious to see another wolf book by the same author, and wondered if it was a sequel of sorts to A Wolf Called Wander. It's more of a companion novel than a true sequel... but it's just as phenomenal a read, based on the true story of a famous Yellowstone wolf and telling an epic story about family, home, and what it means to be a leader.

Warm is the smallest wolf in his litter, and despite the pack guardian's assurance that it takes more than strength to make a leader, he wishes he were as strong or as fast as his siblings, Sharp and Swift. But when an invading pack of Arctic wolves takes over his pack's territory and drives him away, he finds himself the lone protector of the pack's pups. Alone and hunted, Warm must find a way to protect the pups, avoid the Arctic pack's brutal leader, and reclaim their territory.

Parry does a fantastic job of getting us into an animal's head without making them seem like a human in an animal costume. The wolves of Warm's pack all have distinctive personalities and are relatable, but still act and feel like wolves rather than people. And it's fascinating watching their dynamics, and seeing Warm grow over the course of the novel as he takes on responsibility and faces the challenges of survival. The story is well-paced and brilliantly told, and a joy to read.

The book also sneakily teaches the reader about actual pack dynamics in wolf packs, as well as their feeding habits. It also contains an afterword with more information on the story that inspired Warm's, wolves, and the territory they inhabit.

A fantastic companion to A Wolf Called Wander, and a delightful read all around. Also, Kirby Heyborne does a phenomenal job on the audiobook version.

I was not mentally prepared for this book.

I began reading it aloud to my 2 children (5 and 8 y/o) before bed each night. It was entertaining, and we enjoyed how the plot began moving forward. However, there were a couple nights that we ended a chapter and I turned to my wife and we gave each other a look— then as the kids ran off I commented “Well that was a tad depressing”.

As we continued reading the next night and the night after, I joked with my wife “I’m going to try not to cry tonight” as I went to put my kids to bed and read some more just the 3 of us. I didn’t cry— I STRAIGHT UP SOBBED. TWICE!!! There were two separate sections that caught me off guard as I read them aloud and I cried happy tears absolutely sobbing, barely able to speak. I’m a bearded man with a shaved head, and an elementary school teacher. I openly cry when appropriate, and my kids and my students have seen me cry. I’m not afraid to show emotion. But, gosh— I don’t think I’ve sobbed or “ugly cried” like that before from feeling that depth of emotion from a book!

I am a 2nd grade teacher and immediately bought a second copy for work, and began reading it out loud every day to end the school year. My students ended up loving the book as well and were on the edges of their seats each day we read. I loved the themes of family, perseverance, being considered different, that our differences are not bad, and being secure and embracing who we are. Additionally, that our strength lies in community and in those differences.

Added bonus that the end of the book has an absolute treasure trove of information about wolves, the real life setting, plants, and animals in the book, and background on the real life wolf the main character is based off. Further bonus points that the author apparently resides in Oregon! As a teacher in Oregon, my students loved finding out that all the things in the book were things they could conceivably go see.

Being quite familiar with the famous story of Wolf 8 of Yellowstone (and being a huge fan of Rick McIntyre) I was excited when I read that there was an MG novel that was inspired by Wolf 8's story!

I have enjoyed all the Voice of the Wilderness books up to this point, and I enjoyed this one too, but I was a tad disappointed that the author had taken so many liberties with the original story.

The most significant part of Wolf 8's story, to me, was that he was accepted into a pack where the newborn pups were no relation to him. He was their adopted father and had no biological reason to take care of them. And yet he risked his life and fought off a much larger alpha from a different pack, all by himself, in defense of these pups that were not his. That's the part of Wolf 8's story that fills me with amazement!

The author has changed a lot of the story for this book. In this book, the main character is actually taking care of his siblings, not unrelated pups. There's other differences too, such as this story not taking place in Yellowstone.

I understand this book was 'inspired by' rather than being an actual adaptation of Wolf 8's story, but I wish it had been more true to the actual amazing tale, because I find it so breathtaking and full of emotion. I want more people to tell Wolf 8's story!

But even so, I really enjoyed this book and loved reading about the characters and the lessons Warm learns as he goes through life. I love the characters of Warm and Snow, and how he changed her mind by showing her that not all packs live like her own aggressive family.

I just wish the whole 'inspired by' part had been left out of the marketing, since the story is so much changed from the real life animal it's based on.

[Grace · Rating 3 out of 5]

I felt this latest installment is better than its predecessor, a Wolf Called Wander. I liked Warm way more than Swift. Warm is more kind and likeable than his brother, Swift. Swift comes off as more selfish and boastful. Unlike Sharp, by the end of his book, he doesn't seem to undergo any kind of major character change. He still kind of stays confident and self-contained about his own interests. I kind of wish that he would find out that
(spoiler sort of) that his brother was alive and that he would reunite with him and meet his pack with Night. That would actually be a pretty nice idea that the families could join and unite again. Maybe the next book could be how Sharp or maybe the one with the sharp nose can find them. (end of spoiler).

I also feel that it was still rushed for character development and kind of simplistic, like Snow. But other than that, I was far more engaged than the previous book and there was more tension. I also feel another critique is that the villain should've gotten a way steeper comeuppance. After all, he did kill a bunch of Warm's family and made them all suffer for months on end. But then again, that would refute Warm's tendency to be more merciful and kind, aligning more with the wolf he was based on. Overall, better than the first story, but still hope for the final thread to be tired. (a family reunion)

I received an electronic ARC from HarperCollins Children's Books through NetGalley.
Parry brings us the story of another wolf who struggles and finds his way to leading a pack. Warm is one of the smallest in his litter. He doesn't have the gifts his brothers and sisters have but his pack believes in him and encourages him. When the pack is attacked, he leads the new pups away and protects them. As they grow, he finds ways to keep them safe. Readers see them become their own pack though Warm continues to have doubts about his abilities. It is only in the final confrontation with another pack and leading his pack through fire to save them that he realizes he is a strong pack leader. His pack gives him the new name of Fire. I appreciate how Parry brings these characters to life. It is based on a true story of one wolf and she includes that information at the end of the book. She offers other informative text and references so readers can learn more. Looking forward to sharing this one with classes.

A Wolf Called Fire is a stand-alone companion novel to A Wolf Called Wander . The younger pack brother from the first novel, Warm, must also learn how to survive in the rough wilderness without a family to protect and teach him.. After the pack is divided by a rival pack, Warm leads younger pups away from danger, but then finds himself with caring for them on his own. He's not the fastest or the fiercest wolf but Warm can take care of his young siblings.
My heart is full of admiration for these wild animals. Warm learns and grows along with the cubs, discovering his own gifts. This lovely novel for middle grades, told from one perspective, is realistic and clear. The author is able to portray these fictional wolfs as if she herself experienced life as a wild animal fighting to survive. However, her ability to portray each of the main characters as individuals with their own personalities, strengths an weaknesses is her gift. Young readers will recognize the wild and the individual and be inspired to use their own individuality to navigate the human world. Bravo.

Este libro es una delicia. No había leído antes a esta autora, pero me ha encantado por su sencillez y por la paz que transmite, la novela es preciosa y las ilustraciones que tiene, son una maravilla.

La historia de Fire, llamado Warm al principio, es la de un lobo que existió de verdad en el parque de Yelowstone, un lobo que, a pesar de ser el más pequeño, llego a ser líder de su manada.

Empezamos conociendo a Warm, que forma parte de una camada, también a sus hermanos y hermanas y, veremos la personalidad de cada uno; además de a sus padres. La vida no es fácil y los pondrá a prueba: la resistencia, el amor y la responsabilidad harán que Fire tenga que tomar muchas decisiones para proteger a su familia.



Me ha gustado como vemos la historia de esta familia de lobos, casi, como si fuera una familia humana, su dia a día, el proteger su hogar, llevar comida, protegerse del frío.

Una historia de las que se quedan contigo tiempo después de terminarla.

Fire me ha hecho ver a los lobos con otros ojos. La recomiendo.

absolutely LOVED this book. warm is by far the character i related too the most. i couldn’t put it down. wolves have always been a favorite of mine so i was super excited to have found this one at target after reading “a wolf called wander.” i loved the perspective of warm and his journey to becoming a lead wolf. truly inspiring and i would read this book again. everything was easily described and it was easy for me to visualize everything that was happening. the art in the story is excellent and i truly felt like i was there with warm throughout his journey. his new name is very fitting. i was so relieved that his siblings survived the invasion of the enemy pack. i feel so bad for swift as he believes his whole family is dead now and to think if he ever decided to visit his home mountains again he would be so surprised to see his younger brother as a leader. the animal adventure point of view books are my favorite and i hope she continues to include more. i will certainly jump to reading every one of these books.

I personally adored this book. It talks about A wolf who has to lead a group of pups away from the enemies that end up taking over their territory and he ends up having to take care of the pups all on his own until he can finally free the remaining members of his family from the enemy wolf pack.
This book has been a really good book and a source of heavy inspiration for me since I love animals and I just genuinely loved the concept and how well it was made.
I think that both this book and its sequel are awesome picks to read during your freetime. They are especially good for kids, teens, and nature lovers like myself.
I loved the fact that this book talked about an actual living wolf in a sanctuary that helped other wolves out and ruled over the wolves until his death.
All in all, this book is awesome, the concept is really well done, the way it has been made and the lyrics chosen are very significant, and I would definitely give this book a 10/10.

Another amazing addition to the A Voice of the Wilderness series! I devoured this book in a single day. Despite being a children's book, it was packed with suspense, and once I hit the halfway point, I couldn’t put it down...I had to find out what would happen to the wolf pack. What stood out to me the most was how the wolf who became the pack leader earned his position—not through aggression or dominance, but by showing true gentleness and wisdom. I also loved learning that the wolf character, Warm, was inspired by an actual wolf who led a pack in Yellowstone. It’s always incredible to see how animals demonstrate such intelligence and empathy.
