DESCRIPTION:
Jose Aruego and Ariane Dewey's paintings capture, with tenderness and humor, one special relationship. Together they have created a timeless celebration of fatherhood.. The littlest wolf is worried: "I don't roll as straight as Frankie!" "I don't run as fast as Ana!" "I don't pounce as high as Tyler!" he complains.But his father is wise. He listens to his son's concerns. And he helps the littlest wolf realize that all is as it should be.Larry Dane Brimner's story is heartwarming and reassuring. He shows him what he can do
With his father's encouragement, the tot seems to visibly grow in strength and confidence. Running like the wind comes later." Aruego and Dewey (How Chipmunk Got His Stripes) endow each of Little One's demonstrations of his shortfalls with humor and empathy; as he runs, for instance, the artists trace his path in craggy lines of citrus colors, exhaustion oozing from his trembling physique. Ages 4-8. Sure to give fledgling young ones a boost of confidence. From Publishers Weekly Shored up by simultaneously tender and zingy illustrations, Brimner's (Country Bear's Good Neighbor) tale rises above its prosaic theme to comfort children frustrated by the achievements of their older siblings. The narrative occasionally lumbers in its drive to edify, but the father's thoughtful replies are right on target and consistently sound genuine. . Copyright 2002 Cahners Business Information, Inc.

All children have doubts about themselves at one time or another. It's the wise and caring parent that takes the time to listen and really hear what their offspring is saying. In Larry Dane Brimner's book, The Littlest Wolf, Big Gray does just that f. it made an impression Our six- and four-year-olds loved this book; we've read it at least three times in as many days. We spotted the younger one clearly identifying with the little wolf; she echoed his words when we read them. They both acted out the physical description
