Our new book is 'The Last Wolf' by Mini Grey.

Little Red goes into the forest to find a wolf—but she discovers something surprising. There are almost no wild animals left!

She meets the Last Wolf, along with the last bear and lynx. They tell her how their homes have been destroyed. Little Red decides to help bring nature back and save the animals.
