It’s the first Let’s Talk Wild Podcast book club discussion, and I’m thrilled to be joined by Leokadia George, the author behind the heartwarming children’s book Trumpet the Miracle Wolf Pup. Trumpet Becomes a Mom is the fourth book in the series, based on a real-life Mexican gray wolf at the New York Wolf Conservation Center. The book blends love, family, and wildlife conservation into a story perfect for young readers—and their families.

Leokadia shares the inspiration behind Trumpet’s journey, her experiences volunteering at the Wolf Conservation Center, the importance of protecting endangered species, and what it takes to turn real-life animal stories into meaningful children’s literature.
