Good little Wolf, a tale different to other tales about wolves, this story is about Rolf, a small, gentle wolf, lives with Mrs. Boggins, Rolf is told he is a good little wolf. soon Rolf crosses another wolf and is told he is no a real wolf because Rolf is not big or scary. Determined to prove he is a real wolf, Rolf agrees to complete tasks set by the Bad wolf but Rolf fails. Then the wolf sets a final task, will Rolf be able to complete this task and prove he is in fact a real wolf?A delightful tale consisting of familiar characters from well known story books which can lead to lengthy discussions before the story begins. The illustrations are clear and colourful.This story is suitable for children from KS1 onwards, it can be independently read as well as read as part of story time.I particularly like he cliffhanger at the end which allow children to complete the story themselves. This book will be suitable for an English lesson and can help promote persuasive language. This started out as a cute little book about a wolf who chooses to be good, and refuses to be influenced by the big bad wolf who tries to lead him astray. As I was reading it, I was thinking how it was a nice lesson in being yourself and not giving in to peer pressure. The pictures are very cute - Mrs. Boggins reminded me of the Grandma from South Park! But the ending ruined the story for my family. While many kids would probably find the ending funny, my two sensitive little girls HATED it, and actually told me that we should never read this book again and take it back to the library as soon as possible.I should add that I thought the ending was funny in a twisted kind of way, and it actually made my husband laugh out loud when he read it. But I base my picture book reviews primarily on how my kids reacted to it, hence the low rating.
What do You think about O Lobinho Bom (2011)?
Charming illustration of little wolf and big bad wolf :) The ending is a bit of a surprise!

Hilarious! I love it! Great design. Story was so simple but kept me guessing until the end.
