This popular French story about two wolves, one big in black color and one little in blue.  In one autumn day, the little wolf enters into big wolf's lonely life.  They share happiness and friendship together.  However, the subsequent disappearance of the little wolf makes the big wolf feel lonely and sad again.  The story ends with delights and joy after the returning of the little wolf.  These two different characters are emotionally and spiritually linked together in light-colored against sketchy painting.  Tallec's extraordinary colorful illustration and sincere translation bring a sweet and warm story of friendship to children.
