Woof-Woof by Barbara Andrew:Barbara Andrew "Woof-Woof"
A long time ago up in the Alaska Range where temperatures drop to -8OF* there lived an old wise man. This man's name was Scott Wickner. He was from France and wanted to see a different way of life and some new scenery. Scott picked the Alaska Range because he had heard about lights that flashed across the night sky in outrageous colors. He also had heard that the air was clean and crisp there and that the sunrises and sunsets were breathtakingly magnificent. Before Scott left France he had only heard a little bit about wolves. But he didn't know how they looked or what they could do. When he finally arrived in the Alaska Range he discovered that he needed to build a house. While he was walking into the woods to cut some house logs he spotted a pack of animals walking ahead of him. The pack of animals did not make a sound as they moved through the woods. Scott wondered what they were. Later after he made his cabin he was still wondering what they were and why they were still around. Once, while he was taking a nature walk he came upon a cave where he found a litter of little pups. He didn't know how they got there or whose they were, so he brought them back to his cabin. He at first called them "four legs." Later that night when the Wolves found their pups gone, they barked and howled in anger. When the pups heard this howling, they began making a "woof-woof" sound. Since Scott heard them do this every day from that first night, he started calling them "woof-woof." And one day he called them "Wolf."
