The Wolfhound

It is wintertime in Russia and a boy named Pavel discovers a dog half frozen in the snow, and saves it. When he shows it to his father, he learns that it is a wolfhound, a breed kept only by the nobility and the Tsar himself. His father fears that they will be accused of stealing the dog. The story has a heartwarming ending after Pavel tries to send the dog home through the Tsar's forest. Written by Minnesotan Kristine Franklin, illustrated by Kris Waldherr, this will touch the heart of animal lovers.
