Join Taylor on his adventure to rescue nine endangered red wolves from extinction! Using the ability to communicate with animals granted to him after his first encounter with Ituria's Alliance, Taylor races to save the red wolves left in his land. He joins forces with Megan, a dragon temporarily turned human, to save Brandon, a young wolf caught in a poacher's trap. With Brandon freed, the poacher's are angry and hot on their trail. Taylor, his forest friends, unicorns, and dragons must band together to outsmart the dangerous hunters in order to rescue the endangered wolves and relocate them to safety. But will they make it in time? Note from the Author: While Taylor's story is fantasy, extinct still means forever. Red wolves once roamed from Texas to New York and everywhere in between, but until recently the only remaining red wolves were in zoos and refuge centers. Many wildlife organizations are trying to save the red wolf as a species. However, until more humans do their part to protect red wolves, attempts to introduce them back into the wild will do little to increase their numbers. Red wolves are valuable members of our natural ecosystem and we owe it to them to make sure they have a chance to survive. You can do your part by staying educated about endangered animals and learning more about these incredible animals!Show book

An ALA Best Book for Young AdultsAn ALA Quick Pick With an absent mother and a domineering stepfather, Travis uses his tough-guy exterior to hide his true passion: writing. After a violent confrontation with his stepfather, Travis is sent to live on his uncle’s horse ranch—exile to a born-and-bred city kid. Angry and yearning for a connection, Travis befriends Casey, the horse-riding instructor at the ranch, and the untamable horse in her stable: the Star Runner. When a friend from the city visits with stories of other kids from the neighborhood facing jail time, Travis is more determined than ever that he needs to escape the life of juvenile delinquency he seems destined for. When the offer of a book deal comes through, Travis is hopeful that this is his chance to escape—if only his stepfather will stop standing in the way of his dreams. In this novel, the acclaimed author of The Outsiders “portrays her characters with sympathy and yet commendably refuses to gloss over rough edges or gritty truths” (Publishers Weekly). “Hinton continues to grow more reflective in her books, but her great understanding, not of what teenagers are but of what they can hope to be, is undiminished.”—Kirkus ReviewsShow book
