Quick read while in a museum. 
I wanted to read it because the animated film marked my childhood. I had forgotten most of it, however, and it was really nice to have it all come back reading the book.
It does deal with several deep and interesting themes for a children's book, mainly animal captivity and immigration. It's done simply but deeply and beautifully.
I need to rewatch the animated film some day.

Simile a Zanna Bianca, tratta dell'amicizia tra un ragazzo e un lupo.
Consigliato.

Je l'ai lu il a des années et je ne sais pas ce qu'il vaut dans les yeux d'un adulte... Je devrais le relire mais c'est un de ces livres qui m'a tellement marquée que j'ai presque peur de le relire maintenant, tellement mes attentes sont hautes rétrospectivement.

En tous cas, dans mes yeux d'enfants, il a été un chef d’œuvre.
Il m'a transportée d'un bout du monde à l'autre, et m'a touchée au plus profond de mon être. Ce livre a définitivement laissé son empreinte sur moi, à l’époque et jusque dans l'adulte que je suis devenue.

Magnifique! j'ai vraiment adoré! L'histoire du loup puis celle de l'enfant, ce que cette pourriture d'homme fait subir à la nature depuis tant d'années.
L'histoire est formidable, je la recommande à tous!

“Ecco Lupo azzurro! È questo il luogo del mio primo ricordo. Una terribile notte, una notte d’Africa senza luna come se il sole non avesse mai brillato sulla terra...”
Questo è un libro per bambini, ma quanto sia bello e profondo. Non ho mai saputo di questo libro. Una storia fantastica e breve che racconta da due punti di vista molto diversi. Uno dalla parte del lupo e l’altro dalla parte del ragazzo (con un nome interessante
