“Aoyagi's illustrations effectively contrast harmonious shapes of the pristine natural world with jagged shapes in the illustrations of logged forest, log trucks, and [the] helicopter. A commendably effective and unvarnished presentation of wolf culling, for readers who are ready for it.”
—Kirkus Reviews

“Evocative artwork of wolves in their natural habitats enhances this empowering story.”
—Omnilibros

“There is a message about the impact of human activity on the wild wolves of North America, and a gentle urging for those creatures to be protected.”

—Book Riot
