A wolf tries to talk the reader into thinking he is a good guy.
He brings in a shark, a piranha and a snake, in order to try to create a gang of
misunderstood good guys. Its takes some convincing and lectures, but they give
it a go. First they try to rescue a treed cat, next to rescue dogs from the
pound. Will the gang follow the rules, or eat each other and all of those who
the wolf is trying to protect?
At first I was a bit bored, thinking yet another book where the
big bad wolf tries to win us over, but this book surprised me. The dialogue is really
funny and their adventures play out in a creative way. I think reluctant readers
will love this easy to read chapter book that is stuffed with silly pictures
and just a few well timed fart jokes. Perfect for 1-3 graders.
