Brother Wolf of Gubbio: A Legend of Saint Francis

32 pp. | Handprint | November, 2000 | Trade ISBN 1-929766-07-6 $$15.95
(3) K-3 When the townspeople of Gubbio feel terrorized by a lone wolf who steals through the streets seeking livestock for his dinner, they turn to Francis of Assisi for help. Painted on wood panels and outlined in a thick, soft black line, the attractive illustrations give the book the feel of a decorated medieval manuscript, which is enhanced by the calligraphic font used for the text.
Reviewer: Anne St. John
