WOLFI

WOLFI

HALF WOLF, HALF SHEEP, ONE HEART

THE WOLFI, was born half wolf and half sheep. Does it belong to the pack or the herd? Or maybe something even better?

A wolf and a sheep fall in love. They have a son they name Wolfy – he is half wolf and half sheep. You will laugh your heart out with the adventures of Wolfy, but you will also enjoy a wonderful story about family, friendship and acceptance, with the one and only Wolfie finally accepting that being true to yourself is more important than following the herd.

Wolfie's story is a funny fairy tale, a tender and charming story that makes you think. It's not easy being different – young Wolfie must decide if he's part of the pack or part of the herd. But history also hides a powerful message for all children: sometimes you can find the best friends not when you fit in, but when you stand out – and true friends will accept you for who you are and not who you try to be.

Wolfie's dilemma is presented with energy and beautiful visual rendering. Canvases of black, turquoise, green and cream convey the emotions effectively – the dark, forbidding forest is particularly enchanting. – Ian Eagleton, teachwire.net
