This classic children's book tells the story of a young boy who is raised by wolves in the wilderness. The boy, who is later named Peterkin, is discovered and rescued by a group of settlers, who try to integrate him into their way of life. However, Peterkin's wild instincts and his love for his adoptive wolf family make it hard for him to adjust to civilization. The book explores the themes of nature versus nurture, identity, and belonging.
