Wolf Brother by:Michelle Paver Ch. 14-15 pg. 123-139

In these chapters Renn and Torak venture deeper and deeper into the forest. During their journey they must cross a river, which wolf is desperately afraid of. Because wolf is so scared of the water Torak must carry him across. The crossing was perfect until wolf jumped onto land again. This knocked Torak off his feet and sent him down river. Torak struggles to get above water when he sees something shiny at the bottom of the river. Using the last of his breath he dives down and recovers the object. Torak then gets back to land and examines the object. He suspects it is one of the three pieces of the nanuak that he must bring to the mountain to show he is worthy and destroy the bear.
