Wilfred is a
giant who is not only hairy but lonely. When he comes across town where everyone is bald –Wilfred thinks he has found a new friend. The little boy is
quite bossy but Wilfred doesn't mind. But when the towns people ask for Wilfred's fur
to make wigs for everyone, they don’t consider how it will affect Wilfred. His
new friend is determined to help Wilfred survive the winter, no matter the
risk.
This wonderful
story has some pretty powerful lessons about taking advantage of friends and
proving your friendship. It’s full of heart and is an amazing addition to any
library collection. On top of that, the illustrations are phenomenally
adorable, especially the cover –which will serves as a big drawn for this
stupendous book!
