My son and I enjoyed several children's books from the library this past month. The one that delighted us the most is Big Wolf and Little Wolf by Nadine Brun-Cosme, with illustrations by Olivier Tallec.
It's a fairly new book about the budding relationship between a big wolf and the little wolf who comes uninvited into his space one afternoon and decides to stay awhile. When the two part, the big wolf is left with a heart-breaking longingness that makes my son and me sigh sadly.
Owl Moon by Jane Yolen inspired us to reserve a time near the next full moon to go out owling with Daddy in Hartley Field.
And Queen Esther Saves her People by Rita Golden Gelman and Jewish Holiday Games for Little Hands by Ruth Esrig Brinn need to be remembered for their usefulness in putting on the Purim carnival at religious school.
