Julie        
                 George, Jean Craighead, 1919-
                                                                                
             Summary 
  Julie's decision to return home to her people is not an easy one. But after 
many months in the wilderness, living in harmony with the wolves that saved her 
life, she knows the time has come. Julie is not prepared, however, for all the 
changes that she finds. Her father has forsaken many of the old Eskimo 
traditions. He has given up his sled dogs for a snowmobile, and now looks after 
the musk oxen that serve as the village's income. He will do anything to 
protect them -- even shoot any wolves that might threaten the herd. Julie knows 
that, like her father, she must find a way to reconcile the old ways with the 
new. But how can she do that without putting her beloved wolves in danger?"This 
sequel to 1973 Newbery Medal-winning Julie of the Wolves continues the story of 
Julie Edwards Miyax Kapugen. Miyax is now living in Kangik village with her 
father, Kapugen. The one shadow that looms over Miyax is her knowledge that 
Kapugen will shoot more of her beloved wolves if they
 threaten the herd that he is raising as part of the village's industry. Their 
fate depends on whether or not Miyax can prove to her father what he once knew 
but seems to have forgotten: that Eskimos and animals must coexist as 
friends."-K. "This is that rare thing, a sequel worthy of the original."-C.
