Why read it?
1 author picked Big Wolf and Little Wolf as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I adore how this book shows beauty as something irrevocably tied to heartache.

But, instead of becoming a source of disappointment, Brun-Cosme shows us that what happens is something more and even more poignant, an invitation to show up for one another even in imperfect ways.
From Regina's list on picture books that have more layers than cake.
