"When it is time to go to sleep at Mattisburg, Ronja lays her head in Lovis' lap and Lovis sings the "Wolf Song" for her. The song from the Ronja film adaptation has long since become one of Astrid Lindgren's most popular. In this picture book, atmospheric illustrations take us into the forest, where the wolf howls hungrily in the moonlight. He is looking for food, but inside the house the child lies safe in his mother's lap. Danger and security, threat and closeness and warmth combine to create a fascinating, unforgettable lullaby.
