Teaches you so much about friendship, love, and sharing. I'll never forget how intense it got when the Big Fox couldn't find the Little Fox. Definitely give it a read if you get time.

A lovely, quiet story. Soft illustrations - good for a cold winter day.

Really a lovely little story from France. Could be a great story for a little one expecting a sibling on the way. I thought it also read well through the point of becoming a parent in some ways.

Very sweet story about a Big Wolf who looks out for himself until he meets little wolf. Great story of friendship. Very touching. Young children will enjoy it.

A subtle and stirring story that sees a lonely heart begin to open up and allow someone else to enter it. Sitting under the comfort of his tree, Big Wolf has always existed by himself. With the arrival of Little Wolf, feelings that began with fear begin to turn into care and a desire for companionship. Perhaps time spent in the company of another is better than that spent alone, and the rewards offered by a new friend are greater than any danger that they could ever pose.

If ever there was a reason for us to pick up literature beyond our own borders, then this picturebook by Brun-Cosme and Tallec (and translated by Claudia Zoe Bedrick) is one. Written and published in French, this story tells the story of a growing relationship between Big Wolf and Little Wolf. This is a picturebook full of humour but also tenderness and love.

When Big Wolf first sees Little Wolf, he is immediately concerned that his world will change for the worse and that when he cares about might be lost. It is only when he spends time with this newcomer that he realises that sharing his world with another is a far richer experience that he had ever thought possible. A beautiful tale.
