Interest Level: K-2
Reading Level: 2-3

Wolf is very lonely. All he wants to do is find a friend. Every time he tries to talk to someone they chase him away or run away from him because they are scared.

This book has fantastic illustrations that could easily be turned into a fun art project. It is written by an Italian author, which is not something we see every day either. The book is completely multimodal and fits the trend of the new literacies. It would make a great read aloud in a fairy tale unit.
