Only Mohandas is willing to show the wolf-sisters a little kindness. But is kindness enough to make them human?/divDIV /divDIVThis ebook features a personal history by Jane Yolen including rare images from the author’s personal collection, as well as a note from the author about the making of the book./div/div/div
