| A Book For Young Readers Moral Values & Spiritual Truths Mottsie, Wolf of Great Price, is the story of an endearing gray wolf that inhabits the mountains of the far northwest. Blessed with a joyful heart and comical personality, Mottsie seizes every opportunity to leap upon a rock, arch his neck to the sky and howl songs of praise. It is the joy within him and the words of the few who love him that empower and equip him with endurance to triumph over many obstacles. Persecuted as the omega wolf of his pack, Mottsie is encouraged by his beloved sister, Sennu, to utilize his servant capabilities. He becomes the official Sticker Picker and the Family Fly Fanner, reaping rewards of appreciation. Rescued and mentored by David, the Regal Gray wolf, Mottsie matures in love and forgiveness. His true value is defined when David takes a hunter's bullet in his place. Grieved yet empowered by learned spiritual truths, Mottsie is confidant he can flourish and survive to fulfill his purpose in the wild---singing praises to his creator. (Each chapter preceded by Bible scripture) |
