Description
"Little Wise Wolf is very wise. He loves reading books and soaking up all the knowledge embodied within them. One day, Little Wise Wolf is called on to use his impressive wisdom to help the ailing king. But on his way to the palace, he slowly realizes he may not be as wise as he thinks he is, and that the world is much bigger than that contained within his books."--
