Description

Where does imagination end and wintry reality begin, one might wonder when reading this book—and more to the point, how far can you stretch beyond your true nature? Cozied up in his library on a snowy day, a wolf realizes that all the wolves in his books are nasty, scary, and greedy. "I think it's time somebody wrote a story about a nice wolf," he says. Pen in hand, he imagines Mr. Nice Wolf discovering tracks in the snow and following them, hoping to meet a new friend. But none of the animals he encounters trust him, and by the time Mr. Wolf finds the fat, amiable duck who made the tracks, his new friend looks too delicious! Fortunately, it was all a story in his head—but when he hears a knock at the door, he finds real tracks leading off into the snow. Mei Matsuoka's painted cartoons are utterly charming, and her open-ended tale lets youngsters up to 8 decide for themselves how nice Mr. Wolf might be.
