About this ebook

_______________

'An instant childhood classic' - Independent
_______________

Mr Wolf is revealed to be not quite so big and bad as you might imagine in this charming picture book, from the author of the bestselling No Matter What.

What's the time, Mr Wolf? It's story time with Debi Gliori!

Accompany Mr Wolf as he goes about his daily routine from breakfast to bedtime - and get to know the real Mr Wolf! Little ones will enjoy recognising familiar faces from a plethora of nursery rhymes, including Little Red Riding Hood (masquerading as the post girl), three cheeky little pigs (who make prank calls), a cat who's a dab hand at the fiddle, plus four and twenty blackbirds . . .

An enchantingly original story inspired by the well-known playground tag game, this is also perfect for practising telling the time. The stunning artwork reveals something new with every reading and the many fabulous details will keep you turning the pages again and again.

    This book was awesome. It was like 3 books in one. One book would be time. they constantly asked the time. Another book would be the different Nursery stories. And the final book would be the routine that wolf had. You could teach different things from this book. Then the main reason for the book was a surprise party for Mr. Wolf.

    This one makes reference to many different tales in which the wolf is the bad guy and totally turns it around and make you see things differently. I thought this was a very creative idea.

    4/5
    Many characters from fairy tales are involved in this story.
    Kids will learn to tell the time while enjoying a delightful story about Mr Wolf. It's his birthday; he believes his friends have forgotten. Instead...
    The text itself is a character. It is fluent and features onomatopoeia.
    Cute illustrations, have fun spotting all characters.

    Appropriate for preschoolers.
