5.0 out of 5 stars A verry good book which tells a lot about a wolf as a pet, February 22, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Chakka (Paperback)

When I started to read the book, I knew little about wolves. This book showed that wolves are not those bad animals at all. I've learned a lot about the character of wolves by this book. The book is verry nice to read

5.0 out of 5 stars Touching, shows wolves are more than some people think, February 9, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Chakka (Paperback)

This is one of my FAVORITE books! It was very touching. This book shows that wolves aren't blood thirsty monsters, but are just as caring as compassionate as humans can be. Through the example of Chakka, we can see how much wolves care for their "pack", their intelligence, loyalty, and beauty. After reading this book I hope to read Chakka: My Wolf Child also.

5.0 out of 5 stars THE most AMAZING book EVER written!!!, June 28, 2007

This review is from: Chakka (Paperback)

This is the sweetest book I've read, recounting the adventures of Bevie's human "pack" and their newest animal companion, a four-month-old wolf, and how he bonds with her husband and children, as well as their cat, 200-pound Great Danes, and chimpanzees, racoons, skunks, and other unusual animals. It's entertaining, but sweet and sad, recounting the losses that Chakka and his pack had.
