Ferdinand is a huge bull whose size belies his demeanour. His mates just want to butt heads with other peers. However, all Ferdinand wants to do is sit under a tree and smell flowers.
While the book is really short, it has giant lessons to teach. How Ferdinand’s mom accepts him as he is, how Ferdinand doesn’t succumb to peer pressure and simply follows his heart, how we must not judge by looks or size…. The book is full of lovely little lessons for kids and even adults.
This is an early readers’ book with simple language (except for the Spanish bullfighting terms) and loads of illustrations, so anyone aged 4 will be able to enjoy it.
PS: Unlike the norm, the movie is excellent. Go for it if you enjoy animated films.
