Overview / 简介: |
When too little is known and too much is feared, we turn to books. In the spirit of providing much-needed solace comes HENRY & THE WHITE WOLF, an illustrated storybook-and poignant allegory-to help kids who are sick, or kids with friends who are sick, or kids whose parents or siblines or teachers are sick. What makes the simple, straightforward story especially comforting and so close to a child's point of view is that it is written and illustrated by a teenaged brother and sister who not only draw on their own feelings of being in the hospital, but the experience of offering support to close friends with serious illnesses. It is the same fresh thinking that inspired the authors to package with the book a soft, round stone for every child to hold-just like the talismanic stone in the story that Henry, the little sick hedgehog, must hold onto while undergoing the debilitating treatment offered up by the White Wolf, a figure feared by all the hedgehogs. No matter how bad it gets, Henry clutches his stone for dear life-literally-and it gives him the dignity and courage he needs to get better.

Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
Beautifully illustrated story that moves the soul. This book fills your heart with joy. It's not only for sick children but any child that is enduring a difficult time in his or her life, like the sickness of a sibling, freind, parent or close one. I highly recommned this book to anyone that is able to read or is able to be read to, while experiencing the uncertainty of being ill. |
