Reach for this book when your child is grappling with anxiety about the unknown or when they are caught up in the 'telephone game' of schoolyard rumors. This cleverly illustrated graphic narrative explores how a community of forest animals lives in a constant state of high-alert because of the local wolf, only to discover that the creature they feared is actually quite ordinary, and even a bit eccentric. By deconstructing the myth of the Big Bad Wolf, the story tackles heavy themes like the 'fear economy,' social anxiety, and prejudice with a light, absurdist touch. It is an excellent choice for children aged 4 to 8 who are beginning to navigate complex social dynamics and need a humorous way to discuss why we shouldn't believe everything we hear. Parents will appreciate the sophisticated satire and the gentle reminder that our fears are often more frightening than the reality itself.
