Wootsi: The Wolf-Boy and His Mother

from I'll Be Honest

In missionary Rosalind Goforth's book, "Climbing" she records a true story of a boy known as "Wootsi". In God's providence, the tragedy of this young boy being brutally attacked by wolves led to him being taken to a Christian hospital. It was at this hospital that he heard the Gospel and came to know Jesus Christ. In the end, he looked back on all that had happened to him and thanked God for allowing it to happen.The following video is my (James Jennings) attempt at creating a short film out of this story that is for children. The part of the video in which Wootsi is read is directly taken from Rosalind's account. Just to be extra cautious I do want to give this disclaimer: Some children may find the illustrated images that depict the boy's injuries and cuts to be graphic.Disclaimer: Some children may find the illustrated images that depict the boy's injuries and cuts to be graphic.Illustrations by https://www.instagram.com/jacy_loves_art/Audio narration by Jeff Peterson
