May be in BG1, but I must say my druid in IWD did a pretty swelling job being that fire elemental
*drools as he watched Galadawn burn a wizard in his lavaform*

I heard from a friend that Jahiera gets shapeshift at level 7. Also, it's a skill, not a spell, so it wouldn't matter on the scroll pages (kind of answering myself there, but... ).
If you plan on shapeshifting into a wolf, there IS a a cloak that does that for you. Besides, you only want to shapeshift if you have poor stats. My lil' druid got poorer stats as he became a wolf. He even got encumbered. Also, when I make up my mind to not use any magical weapons with a possible exception to some +1 weapons, those claws can be very usefull compared to a simple wooden club.
