Now that she is staying with Grandma Nan on Big Sky Mountain, they’ve decided Rosa needs her own room. Grandma Nan built her entire wood cabin herself, so another room is no trouble, but they will need more wood.

As they are planning and measuring, a storm rushes in, along with their talking animal friends needing shelter. Another animal arrives – a tiny wolf cub. It’s even more frightened of squawking, flapping Little Pig (Grandma Nan’s grouchy pygmy owl) than the storm, and it dives under a bed. Rosa and Grandma Nan wonder where the rest of its family is?

It’s so adorable, Rosa wants to keep it. Grandma Nan convinces her it should be with its pack and Little Pig agrees for a change.

A search results in discovering a wolf pack causing trouble for a friend of Grandma Nan’s and many more on the mountain. Putting fear aside and the wolf cub’s safety first, they build their trust in these wolves and vice versa.

Grandma Nan and Rosa prove there is plenty of room for all on Big Sky Mountain. Not only is everyone much happier, they soon have all the wood they need for Rosa’s new room.

Venturing deep into the woods to find a pack of wolves, Rosa experiences a different part of the wilderness of Big Sky Mountain. There are also new feelings of fear and eventually trust and friendship, as wolves and humans interact.

A mix between fantasy (talking animals wearing striped jumpers!) and the environment (tree harvesting) makes this a perfect story for junior animal and adventure lovers.
