The book is about the young Moritz, called Motte, who is known for his shyness and fearfulness, which is why he is teased. He lives with his parents and his older brother.
One day he is walking home from a movie with his best friend Lina. They decide to take a shortcut through a dark tunnel, where they meet a creepy dog that bites Moth's hand and flees. At home, Motte notices uncanny changes: hair grows around his injured hand, his eyes turn yellow, his teeth become sharp and his voice begins to change. He quickly turns to Lina, who believes Moth will turn into a werewolf , since the scary dog can only have been a wolf. They quickly try to find an antidote, but the transformation shouldn't be Motte's only problem, because his biology teacher is waiting for the opportunity to catch and present a real werewolf.
Child-friendly werewolf story
Little Werewolf is a child-friendly werewolf story that does without bloodshed and other scary effects, but is also peppered with a helping of humor. Unlike other werewolf books and films, Motte only changes outwardly, but inside he's still the friendly boy.
