Julie of the Wolves personifies the wolf characters, giving them humanlike characteristics. For example, Miyax names them and discusses them as having a language, playing with each other, punishing Jello, and so on. How does the novel depict the wolves’ differences from Miyax and other humans, and why are these differences important?

Miyax spends time in two distinct environments, in the city and in the wilderness. What effect do these different environments have on her character? How does she transform as she moves from one setting to another? How does she stay the same?

Compare and contrast Miyax’s relationship with her family and her relationship with the wolf pack.
