(4) K-3 Illustrated by Robin James. This is a somewhat forced fictional story about a real gray wolf's journey from Oregon to California. Abby eagerly follows news stories about the wolf's odyssey; she enters a naming contest, and her entry--Journey--is the winner. Realistic watercolors reflect alternating narratives: Abby's focus on Journey's travels and those travels from the wolf's perspective. A note about how biologists tracked Journey is appended. Timeline, websites.
