Publisher Description
New York Times bestseller!
From StacyPlays, creator of the mega-popular YouTube series Dogcraft, comes a thrilling illustrated novel about a girl raised by a pack of wolves and her quest to protect their shared forest home. The first in a new Minecraft-inspired fantasy adventure series!
Stacy was raised by wolves. She’s never needed humans to survive and, from what she sees of humans, they’re dangerous and unpredictable. For as long as she can remember, Stacy’s pack of six powerful, playful wolves—Addison, Basil, Everest, Noah, Tucker and Wink—have been her only family.
Together, Stacy’s pack patrols the forest to keep other animals safe, relying on her wits and each wolf’s unique abilities to accomplish risky rescue missions. But as the forest changes and new dangers begin lurking, are Stacy and the wolves prepared for the perils that await them?
Fans of DanTDM: Trayaurus and the Enchanted Crystal and the Warriors series—plus shows like Ranger Bob—will love this Minecraft-inspired adventure.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
In this middle grade adventure, first in a series from the creator of the YouTube personality StacyPlays and heavily inspired by the Dogcraft story line of her Minecraft videos, an amnesiac girl raised by wolves spends her time in the wilderness rescuing animals and honing her survival skills. Twelve-year-old Stacy doesn't remember how she wound up in the northern snow forest, or taiga (where, precisely, is never specified) with a pack of highly intelligent wolves for company, and she has no desire to leave them to seek out the buried mysteries of her past. Instead, she deals with issues such as careless campers, intrusive surveyors, a rival wolf pack, and a devastating forest fire, all in the name of protecting her home. Hinojosa includes subtle vocabulary lessons in her positive ecological messages that advocate for environmental stewardship. Those familiar with the author and her Minecraft escapades will have no trouble visualizing the world as she lovingly describes highly competent, self-sufficient Stacy's surroundings and woodcrafting efforts. The back matter includes an interview with a wolf researcher, offering further appeal to young animal-loving readers. Final art not seen by PW. Ages 8 12.
Customer Reviews
Best book of my life
The book is really great and I absolutely love it. Although there are some words I don’t understand, I really enjoy it. However, I don’t think I’ll ever understand how you can tell whether it’s a boy or girl. Nonetheless, this is a great book.
Oh my god
YES. I don’t watch Stacy but her books are amazing!
Very good but there is an issue
This is a good book to read once but the second time I found an issue and that issue is that needs another layer of editing. Because I sometimes I get really confused. I first read this book when I was 7 now I am a few years older also in the pictures she looks very young for being 12. Sorry for being the only negative one I am tired.
