Willa of the Wood

A girl stands in green grass with a brown wolf.
Robert Beatty

In the late 1800s, a twelve-year-old night spirit living in the Great Smoky Mountains despairs as homesteaders destroy her forest habitat until a chance encounter with a "day-folk" man changes everything she thought she knew about her people--and their greatest enemy.
