Meet Virginia, who is feeling particularly wolfish today. Somehow, her sister Vanessa must help her feel better. But how can one girl save another from turning into a grumpy, gobbling wolf? The only way to find out is to pick up a paintbrush and see where your imagination takes you.

Loosely inspired by sisters Virginia Woolf and Vanessa Bell, this stunning picture book is a testament to the power of creativity to inspire and heal, and to the loving bond between siblings.

REVIEWS

This clever picture book imagines the secret world of the young Virginia Woolf and her sister Vanessa. And doesn’t shy away from tackling depression. {Imogen Carter at The Guardian}

This beautiful picture book based loosely on the childhood of Virginia Woolf is a book to savour. It explores sisterly love, complex emotions and the power of imagination in such a way that younger children will enjoy the story and older children will have something to think about. {Emily Drabble of BookTrust}

The charming story of one sister trying to coax her sibling out of the doldrums has both child and adult appeal. {Achuka}
