The Wolves of Currumpaw
Langbeschreibung
William Grill re-tells Seton's dramatic and moving story, 'Lobo, The King of Currumpaw' the true-to-life tale of his hunt, alongside his distinctive, stunning and detailed illustrations in The Wolves of Currumpaw. This, Grill's second non-fiction picture book for Flying Eye Books, is set in the dying days of the old west, across the vast plains of New Mexico, at a time when man's relationship with nature was very much exploited and misunderstood. The hunt of Lobo and his pack touched Seton so profoundly that he dedicated the rest of his life to conservation and worked tirelessly to spread this message to the youth of America and championing the wolf right up to his death in 1946. His efforts are evident through lobbying for wildlife protection, hunting laws and founding The Woodcraft League and The Boy Scouts of America.
William Grill is a fresh-faced new talent, recently graduated from the University of Falmouth. With a slew of prizes and exhibitions under his belt, Grill's vibrant colors and cheerful illustration truly bring a book to life. In 2015, William Grill was the youngest Kate Greenaway Medal winner since 1960.
