Loukas is a fox who wants to become something other than what he really is... He wants to acquire the abilities that other animals have, because he believes that this way he will be better. For this reason, he makes crazy inventions, which unfortunately fail. So, he falls into melancholy and decides to shut himself in his house, away from everyone. However, a serious event turns him into a superhero and he finally understands...
To tell the truth, the element that initially attracted me to this book is the amazing illustration! As soon as I flipped through its pages, my eyes were flooded with intense and vibrant colors!
Loukas stands out from the other sketches, as he is in a bright orange color.
It is an interesting children's book with the main message of acceptance and love for ourselves! A lesson that children should know from a very young age, so that they become mature and complete adults.
How many pieces of advice have I read as a mom from experts, in my effort to boost my boys' self-esteem...
In recent years, we live in the era of social media and the fake image we see... We think that we are not as good as others... And this is the message we pass on to our children.
So Loukas helps us realize our mistake and become good examples for our children.
Another strong message that this particular book gives us is the love and support from our friends.
Even if Loukas made unsuccessful inventions, his friends supported him and were saddened by his failures. They stayed by his side, recognized his unique characteristics and abilities, and finally applauded and rejoiced in his success.
I wish all children could understand their worth, believe in themselves, and always have loving and supportive friends by their side!
