About this episode

A boy named Walker discovers a family secret after eating magical berries that transform him into a werewolf.

A werewolf story for kids who love magic, monsters, and mystery: when a boy named Walker eats a handful of wild berries in the forest, he learns too late that they're Wolfsblood — a rare plant that wakes up a werewolf secret buried in his family for generations. Suddenly furry, clawed, and enormous, he has to survive a run-in with the bandits who rule the woods around his village. The first chapter of the Wolfsblood series, this is a fantasy adventure and read-aloud audio story about transformation and courage, perfect for big kids ages 8–11.
