Roseanne Parry, whose “Voice of the Wilderness” middle-grade series centers on wild animals and their struggle to survive in a dangerous and changing world, joins me to discuss her newest book, A Wolf Called Fire.

A Wolf Called Fire tells the wilderness survival story of the wolf pup known as Warm. It’s inspired by Wolf 8, a real Yellowstone wolf who was the smallest of his pack and constantly bullied by his bigger brothers but grew up to be a different sort of leader – one who fought many rival wolves to submission but never killed any, mentoring young wolves and became the patriarch of the largest and most successful pack in Yellowstone.

Roseanne lives with her family in Portland, OR, and writes in a treehouse in her backyard.
