Julie of the Wolves is a staple in the canon of childrens literature and the first in the Julie trilogy. The survival theme makes it a good pick for readers of other wilderness stories such as My Side of the Mountain, Hatchet, or Island of the Blue Dolphins.
To her small Eskimo village, she is known as Miyax; to her friend in San Francisco, she is Julie. When her life in the village becomes dangerous, Miyax runs away, only to find herself lost in the Alaskan wilderness.
Miyax tries to survive by copying the ways of a pack of wolves and soon grows to love her new wolf family. Life in the wilderness is a struggle, but when she finds her way back to civilization, Miyax is torn between her old and new lives. Is she Miyax of the Eskimosor Julie of the wolves?
系列圖書介紹：紐伯瑞兒童文學獎（Newbery Medal），又稱紐伯瑞獎，由美國圖書館兒童服務學會于1922年為紀念紐伯瑞而創(chuàng)設的獎項。 這個獎每年頒發(fā)一次，專門獎勵上一年度出版的以文字為主的英語兒童文學優(yōu)秀作品。這一獎項設立近百年來，對美國以及世界的兒童文學有著極大的影響。
紐獎作品常常關注世界上在各種境遇中成長的孩子們的故事，而且大都是以7-14歲孩子所處的量變到質(zhì)變的階段為主角，從孩子角度，講述他們的成長故事。作為以“文字”為核心衡量標準的獎項，紐伯瑞獎作品的文字表述極富有美感，是體會英語語言之美的絕佳讀物。
