2016Growing up in the shadows cast by two world wars, Annabelle has
lived a mostly quiet, steady life in her small Pennsylvania town.
Until the day new student Betty Glengarry walks into her class.
Betty quickly reveals herself to be cruel and manipulative, and
while her bullying seems isolated at first, things quickly
escalate, and reclusive World War I veteran Toby becomes a target
of her attacks. While others have always seen Toby's strangeness,
Annabelle knows only kindness. She will soon need to find the
courage to stand as a lone voice of justice as tensions mount.
Brilliantly crafted,&,nbsp,Wolf Hollow&,nbsp,is a haunting
tale of America at a crossroads and a time when one girl's
resilience, strength, and compassion help to illuminate the darkest
corners of our history. ",The honesty of&,nbsp,Wolf
Hollow&,nbsp,will just about shred your heart, but Annabelle's
courage and compassion will restore it to you, fuller than
before.&,nbsp,This book matters.", --Sara Pennypacker, New York

book.&,nbsp,It has the feel of an instant classic.", --Linda
