This Christmas, his Majesties of the East left several stories at home. One of the most successful has been "The Good Wolf," a children's story that tells the story of a very good wolf in a world where what is expected of a wolf is that it is bad.
Beautifully illustrated, "The Good Wolf"It is a perfect example of a children's story that while entertaining and enthralling small readers favors positive values, in this case the selfconcept.
The protagonist of the book is an adorable little wolf who loves to be good, eat all the vegetables on the plate, prepare delicious desserts and behave great with his friends. His grandmother keeps telling him how good he is but it turns out that not all wolves are as good as him!
In fact, next to the Good Wolf we will meet another more conventional wolf: a black and very fierce one, with a mouth full of sharp teeth, ready to show that real wolves are bad evils.
What is expected of a wolf? Let the moon howl, knock down houses to blows, eat people ... in short, may they be bad!
But the Good Wolf doesn't want to change. He is a very good wolf and is willing to show that to be a real wolf you don't have to be bad. Because the only certainty is that each of us is unique and special, and we don't have to do what others expect of us to feel good, for true happiness is in being happy with what one is.
"El Buen Lobito" is a fun book, superbly illustrated, that will teach the first readers a great teaching: that we must believe in ourselves and in our virtues. A great choice if we look for a children's story that through its reading favors the healthy development of the child's self-concept.
