Sylvie and the Wolf

by Andrea Debbink (Author) Mercè López (Illustrator)

Reading Level: 2nd − 3rd Grade

Sylvie's fear of the Wolf makes her world small. But when she is able to confront her fear, a wonderful discovery and healing unfolds.

Sylvie lives high in the mountains, where shadow meets light, wild streams follow twisting paths, and animals run free in the forest. Sylvie is not afraid of anything--until she meets the Wolf. She keeps her fear a secret, and it begins to control her life and makes her world small. Finally, with the encouragement of a loving aunt, Sylvie is able to confront her fear and learns that, instead of running or hiding, she can move forward and live alongside it.

A beautifully told story that helps children learn how to emotionally care for themselves, show love and empathy to others, and understand the negative nature of secrets.
