Bigger than the Wolf (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780645884623)

Wolfgang is sad because his mom can't be at the fair, the cross-country race or the talent quest when all of his friends' moms can and he thinks that it might be his fault that she goes away from time to time. Owl helps Wolfgang know that the stories we make up in our minds may not always be true. Wolfgang's mom tells him why she really goes away and shows him the power that doing something 'bigger than ourselves' can have, not only on those we serve but on ourselves as well!
