Book Synopsis
First-day-of-school jitters take on a whole new meaning at howlergarten, where future werewolves prepare for their big transformation!

Most kids go to kindergarten, but there is a special place for those who turn into werewolves. Instead of attending school during the day, these supernatural students go to howlergarten at night! There they practice tracking scents, listening to whispers on the wind, and more. But when one student named Sophie doesn't seem to possess the basic skills, she worries she won't become a werewolf at all. What will happen if she remains human when the full moon appears? Will she still be accepted as part of the pack, or will she be cast aside as an ordinary outsider?

“[A]n empathetic telling of first-day jitters with a diverse cast of young werewolves...reinforces the axiom to accept and celebrate differences.” —BCCB

"Readers drawn in by the supernatural elements at play will stick around for a feel-good story line that involves very human concerns." —Publishers Weekly
