Bear and Wolf tells the gentle story of two young animals who meet on a snowy evening and form an unlikely friendship. As they wander the winter forest, they observe its quiet wonders togetherโ€”from an owl soaring above to fish resting beneath the frozen lake. Their peaceful companionship captures the natural rhythms of life and the beauty of connection before returning to their separate lives: Bear to hibernate and Wolf to run with the pack.

"Just found the book we'll gift to every child we know!" โ€“ PBS
"Stunning, serene and philosophical" โ€“ Maria Russo, The New York Times

"Hushed and lovely, this is a picture book to calm and inspire." โ€“ Meghan Cox Gurdon, The Wall Street Journal

Bear and Wolf become unlikely companions one winter's evening when they discover each other out walking in the falling snow; they are young and curious, slipping easily into friendship as they amble along together, seeing new details in the snowy forest.

Together they spy an owl overhead, look deep into the frozen face of the lake, and contemplate the fish sleeping below the surface. Then it's time to say goodbye: for Bear to go home and hibernate with the family and for Wolf to run with the pack. Daniel Salmieri's debut as author/illustrator is a beautifully rendered story of friendship and the subtle rhythm of life when we are open to the world and to each other.
