Vi havde et navn for et bestemt menneskebarn. Det var dette barn, som ville gå side om side med ulvene, og som ville kende vores stilhed og tale for os. Dette barn ville være vores stemme, så vi ikke behøvede at tale længere. Så vi kunne leve sådan, som ulve burde. Fri for ord. Barnets navn var Ulvetunge.“Ulvetunge” er en original og uforglemmelig stærk fortælling om at finde sin stemme. Om hvordan vi kan tvivle på os selv, når vi ikke kan finde ord, og om hvordan vores sprog besidder magten til at forme verden omkring os.“Ulvetunge” er skrevet af Sam Thompson, som har skrevet flere romaner til voksne. Ulvetunge er hans første roman til børn. Bogen er illustreret af Anna Tromop og oversat til dansk af Lisette Agerbo Holm.
