Book - Henry and the White Wolf

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 and in treatment, or kids with friends, parents or siblings who are sick and in treatment.

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.

A smooth, round stone is included 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.

From the Back Cover

For one courageous little hedgehog it means facing his darkest fears, such as the White Wolf. Or the uncertainty of change, like when all his quills fall out. In this inspiring tale about the journey back to health, a hedgehog named Henry clings to his good-luck stone, and, using all of his inner strength finds his way out of illness.

Included for all little heroes is a stone of their very own, a reminder of the strength that is always within them.

Reader's Reviews:

"A superb little book! It's a truly wonderful gift for seriously ill children who are naturally frightened by the whole experience. Also a worthwhile gift for healthy children as well. A great way to teach compassion and prepare children for all sorts of scarey situations. The story is very sweet,and I applaud the talented young authors for their imagination and storytelling skill".  Mary Yerrick, Bethesda, MD
"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". Margaret Jimenez, Los Altos, CA
