An animalist retelling of one of the Grimm brothers’ classics

Mother Goat’s wit gives us a surprise ending. And our children can begin to imagine collaborative relationships among animals, sitting around a table full of vegetables

Once upon a time there were seven little goats that were eaten up by a ravenous wolf but… The ending constitutes the real novelty of this fairy tale, which does not finish with a macabre dance around the wolf’s body, but with a cheerful and friendly meal of vegetables.

Mother Goat in fact decides to fill the ravenous animal’s belly with garden produce, converting it in this way to the virtues of vegetarianism. An allegory of the possibility of change and the positive force of relationships. The beautiful drawings will involve even the smallest children in the magic of this book.
