Callum, a boy who has lived with wolves since he was a baby, rejoins civilization. Adventures ensue as Callum learns to speak English, navigates middle school, and is reunited with his family. The text often tries too hard to be funny, but readers may appreciate the silliness resulting from Callum's attempts to use his wolf skills to navigate human society.
