Steve, Raised by Wolves

Description

On the first day of school, one wild little boy learns how to fit in--and how to stand out! "Be yourself," Steve's mom tells him on the first day of school, and he knows just what to do. After all, Steve is a human raised by wolves, and wolves are great at howling in class, shredding homework, and pouncing on new friends! Trying to fit in does NOT go well--until the class pet goes missing and Steve gets a chance to show everyone what wolves do best.
