Peter lives at the edge of a meadow where danger lurks beyond the garden gate. His grandfather warns him about the wolf that roams the forest, but Peter's curiosity proves stronger than caution. When the wolf appears and threatens the small creatures Peter has befriended, the boy must find courage he never knew he possessed. With only his wits and the help of a clever bird, Peter faces a predator that has terrorized his world. The U2 frontman retells this beloved story with fresh energy, exploring how a young person discovers bravery in the face of real danger. Peter's journey from sheltered child to unlikely hero reveals the power that comes from protecting those who cannot protect themselves.
