Wolves of the Beyond:Frost Wolf Kathryn Lasky
Genre-Fiction | Publication Date-2011 The novel is about a wolf called Faolan that survives with a friend of his, Edme. There is another wolf called the Prophet that tries to send out wolves to kill Faolan and Edme. They try to find a shelter to try to hide but end up getting spotted by a wolf. They run away and escape from the wolf. After getting away they go out and find the Prophet. They confront him ask ask him why he wants to kill them and he jumps at them and they finally kill the Prophet. The book is associated with the other five Wolves of the Beyond books Lone Wolf, Shadow Wolf, Watch Wolf, Spirit Wolf, and Star Wolf. I would give the book a 2 because I like the Wolves of the Beyond books. They explain how the wolves survive and how they hunt their prey. The book shows how they grow up and learn to hunt and communicate with the others. I also like how the author makes it feel like something is going to happen like a fight scene. The book also continues the story of the main character, Faolan and gives the wolf a characteristic for each book the author makes.

    A wolf pack is just like a family. These packs are made up of between seven to six members. Some contain more than 20. The family does everything together, it hunts and lives together (Life Cycle of a Wolf pg. 8). The wolves have their own society. There are two leaders, an alpha male who the other wolves follow and the alpha female who keeps the others in line. The two alphas are the ones that mate and then have puppies. Both of the alphas get first pick of everything especially the food. All of the other wolves keep watch over the pups that are born. Just like their parents the pups have a society of their own during play. There is are alpha pups one of each sex. They are called the betas. While the lowest of the pups are the omega on of each sex. These two must obey the betas. Each wolf has its own personality, its own hunting style and physical strengths. As pups get older they are introduced into the packs. There can be changes in the pecking order. One of the lower down wolves can challenge the alpha for leadership of the pack. If the alpha loses it can be likely that it will go off on its own and if it finds a new mate may start a pack of its own (Gray Wolf Red…

    The female and male parents of the pack are acknowledged as the alpha’s. The other wolves that make up the group are the younger ones that the alphas bred. The female and male parents are known as alpha because they are more knowledgeable of hunting skills, weather circumstances, and the dangers around them that the others are not aware of yet. Packs could have up to as many as 15 wolves in them, it depends on the abundance of food, and wolf population around them mainly though. They all do much of everything as a group as they are. After a couple to a few years of the cubs being in the group, they stray off and go to find vacant territory and a mate so they could start their own…

    I would rate this book 3.5 stars out of 5. The lack of establishing conflicts throughout the novel was disappointing. However, I would still recommend this novel to others as it covers a very important issue and teaches readers what it feels like to be in the shoes of a refugee. Do not expect an incredibly exciting or sad story, because that is not what The Bone Sparrow…

    The book, Honor and the American Dream: Culture and Identity in a Chicano Community, and the film, Salt of the Earth, both relay to their audience, the pursuit of happiness within the Chicano community in which they live. These works aim to show how Mexican-American immigrants fight to keep both their honor and value systems alive in the United States of America, a country which is foreign to their traditions. The Mexican-Americans encountered in these works fight for their culture of honor in order to define themselves in their new homeland, a homeland which honors the American dream of successful capitalism.…
