Il ciambellano e il lupo
by Baldelli, Simona
Giorgio has many fears. He is afraid of thunderstorms, of the lighthouse whistle, of wolves, and of his father. Since his return from the war, he hardly speaks to him. Holed up in his world in the hills, Giorgio will find the courage to ride his bicycle and reach the sea for Marianne’s love. Along the journey, in the night, he will make friends with a wounded wolf, who needs his help. He will begin to see his father with different eyes and to make important decisions, because the time has come to try to make his wishes come true.
● A touching story about growing up
