- Book Intro
-
When the wolf approaches the spring to drink water, the reflection of a rabbit appears. The wolf tries to hide himself to hide his weakness, even trying to jump in the water to get rid of the rabbit. The book delivers the message that everyone has their own real reflection, and that they should accept it as it is. This book personifies animals to help children understand the process better. Spring of Mind is a story about the wolf’s heart, but at the same time, it is also a story about everyone’s heart. Children will learn about the various reflections the heart has, and hopefully they will start to think about other reflections of themselves.
