Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_content_3'); })A children's novel by Marion Dane Bauer.In a forest in Minnesota, four wolf pups are born. Their mother names them for the potential she sees in them, and the pack celebrates the arrival of its newest members. Then a fifth pup is born. Though he is unique in that he has his father's coat, he is small and weak. His parents cannot see any outstanding features to name him after, so he is simply named "Runt". As Runt grows, he struggles to find his place in the pack and earn a new name. | |

Animal Talk | |
| Runt / int_7ec8506d | comment |
Animal Talk: There's basically one animal language - wolves, dogs, ravens, owls, porcupines, and squirrels all speak the same language. (Except, for whatever reason, cows and deer don't seem to talk.) | |

Humans Are Cthulhu | |
| Runt / int_98c2a8f2 | comment |
Humans Are Cthulhu: Played with. Most of the wolves feel this way, and when Runt realizes that his actions have probably resulted in his brother's death (and has a face full of porcupine needles besides), he goes to a human house because he wants death. The humans care for him instead, removing his porcupine quills, but after he returns to the pack, they mostly refuse to interact with him because he's been around humans. Later on, Bider kills a cow and convinces Runt to try to get the pack to eat it. The pack refuses to join the meal because the cow was owned by humans; Bider himself goes back to eat it. Turns out it's poisoned, and a very good reason to stay away from humans. | |
