Little Wise Wolf
We can instantly relate to the titular character in this fantastic book from Book Island. A book loving wolf!"Little Wise Wolf" by Gjis van der Hammen and Hanneke Siemensma opens as our Wolfy Booky hero is indulging in his favourite hobby...reading.
The problem with having a reputation for being well read is that people will pester you all the time for good advice. And that's exactly what happens with Little Wise Wolf. The villagers nearby always pose difficult questions, which the wolf can usually answer easily because he's so well read.
But then there's a crisis in the kingdom.
The king turns out to be seriously ill, and Little Wise Wolf is called on to use his knowledge to make him better again.

Still, off he travels and begins to realise that sometimes the only way to experience the amazing sights of our world is to get out there and enjoy it directly.
