Friendly Wolf

$750,00

I’m the Friendly Wolf marionette, familiar to you all from Little Red Riding Hood. My role there wasn’t exactly flattering—eating grandma is definitely not the way to win friends! I wasn’t thrilled with how that fairy tale ended, either. I’d much rather be a positive hero. Who wants to be remembered for causing bellyaches when you could be known for creating belly laughs?

I love wandering through the woods, soaking in the scenery and listening to everyone’s stories. Think of me as the woodland’s unofficial gossip columnist, minus the pen and paper. To fit in and impress my woodland friends, I’ve got a cool coat and a snazzy pair of pants. Now, no one needs to fear me, right? Well, unless they critique my fashion choices!

I’m genuinely a good guy at heart. I may joke about having a bone collection somewhere—okay, maybe not, but a wolf can dream! Whether it’s helping lost hikers or sharing jokes by the campfire, I’m here to prove that wolves can be wonderful. So next time you hear a rustle in the bushes, don’t worry—it’s just me, the Friendly Wolf, ready to bring more joy and giggles to the forest!

“I Friendly Wolf, dream of hosting joyful forest gatherings where all creatures come together for laughter and storytelling under the moonlit sky.”
