Will the wolf come? Mom is certain it will not, for it cannot hide among the trees, nor does it know the code at the entrance to their apartment building. But Bunny is worried – what if the wolf comes anyway? This amusing and surprising story is about bonding, imagining, and surprising – it isn’t just beauty that’s in the eye of the beholder.

Suggestions for Family Activities

Children imagine, ask questions, and do not take anything for granted, just like the bunny in this book. This story surprises us, readers, as we discover that the bunny is not afraid of the wolf, but waits for it, because they are friends. Although it does not seem likely to us that the wolf will come, life can be full of surprises, and the impossible becomes utterly possible.

The important thing is not to stop questioning

Reading together We recommend reading the book on your own, before reading it together as a family. Familiarizing yourself with the book in advance will help you read it afterwards at the pace and sequence suitable for your children. Enjoy reading this book together!
A discussion on waiting Have you ever had to wait for something? Perhaps you could share that experience, and tell each other about anticipation. You could also come up with ideas together of what you could do while waiting, or tell each other what you chose to do in those instances while you waited. What happened in the end?
An illustrator at work How do you illustrate a bunny? Or a wolf? Scan the QR code and watch illustrator Ronan Badel illustrating the characters in this book.
Illustrations and clues Look at the final illustrations in this book. Can you find any indications for the birthday party the wolf had almost missed? And which presents did the bunny get? And what was special about the wolf’s gift?
A game of “Wolf in motion” Leaf through this book and decide the order of play. Take turns looking at the illustration you have each selected and acting out the depicted wolf’s motion: Is it going up in the elevator? Or walking on all fours? The other players will have to guess what the wolf is doing.
