Description
Once upon a time there was a rabbit who had never seen a wolf, and a young wolf who had never seen a rabbit. The pair meet and become good friends. Tom the rabbit teaches the wolf to play marbles, read, count and fish. Wolfy teaches Tom to run very, very fast. But eventually their friendship is tested by the classic game Who's-afraid-of-the-wolf? Can the little rabbit and the young wolf remain best friends in all the world?

Reviews"Beautifully offbeat, gorgeously illustrated and with an uplifting message about friendship, diversity, understanding and loyalty, this is a warm and wise book which will delight both youngsters and their parents." -- Lancashire Post "This story is so much deeper than it's simple premise! Within, and underlying, the few lines of text are ideas on friendship, bullying, fear, differences, tolerance, racial issues and understanding...The true depth of this book is discovered not during the story, but in the conversations you hold with your child after it's finished." -- Kiwi families
