Description
Take your seat in the front row and watch in wonder as three cheeky little circus pigs make a wild wolf jump through hoops (literally), endure feats of astounding derring-do, and even withstand perilous games of dress-up. Safe in the thought that "Wolf Won't Bite!" they even put their heads between his jaws . . . but can you push a wolf too far?
Sure to strike a chord with anyone who has both a pet and a young child, Wolf Won't Bite! by Emily Gravett is a very funny and playful story with a snappy ending!
A highly entertaining picture book reversal of the Three Little Pigs from Kate Greenaway Medal-winning Emily Gravett.
