A howl in the night. A watchful eye in the darkness. A flutter of movement among the trees. Coyotes. In the dark of the night, a mother coyote stalks prey to feed her hungry pups. Her hunt takes her through a suburban town, where she encounters a mouse, a rabbit, a flock of angry geese, and finally an unsuspecting turkey on the library lawn. POUNCE! Perhaps Coyote's family won't go hungry today.

A mother coyote hunts for her family in a suburban neighbourhood in this thrilling, fierce, and gorgeously illustrated nonfiction picture book.
