Mr. Wolf Bounces Back

"Each of these books and others in the series describes what happens to the characters after the original tale ends. Little Red Riding Hood and the three little pigs have gotten on with their lives, but Mr. Wolf and Granny are not doing well. The wolf has three cubs and a wife, but is having trouble finding a job. Granny is lonely until Red Riding Hood fixes her up with the woodcutter. Each character ends up living happily ever after. Children will enjoy looking at the refreshingly humorous drawings and will love that unexpected outcomes that give a new twist to the folktales. The entire series would be especially good for struggling readers. Teachers and librarians could use these titles for teaching sequence and predicting. The books contain a glossary, discussion questions, writing prompts, and Internet sites. Recommended."
