Shadows and Secrets is book 12 in Anh Do's smash hit Wolf Girl series and he has delivered another riveting story filled with danger and suspense.
The Braxons are right on her heels which makes for some nerve wracking moments as Gwen and the dogs battle through some life or death situations as they navigate dark caves, booby traps and raging rivers. Gwen's canine friends add plenty of humour to the narrative which lightens up the story.
Each new book doesn't progress far but there is lots of action that will keep the reader invested. Kids will love it!
Extensively
illustrated throughout, by Jeremy Ley, with half and full page black and white sketches,
which add an extra element of comprehension to the story.
The book ends on a super cliff-hanger that will have kids eager for the next installment. Anh Do knows how to keep his readers hooked!
Wolf Girl is a series that needs to be read in order as it is an ongoing story and there is very little backstory included.
