Description

<b>THE MODERN CLASSIC WITH OVER THREE MILLION COPIES SOLD • The Big Bad Wolf tells <i>his</i> side in this fractured fairy tale, brought to life with irreverent storytelling and artwork that “older kids (and adults) will find very funny” (<i>School Library Journal</i>).</b><br><br><b>A <i>New York Times </i>Best Book of the Year • American Booksellers Association Picture Book Hall of Fame • Society of Illustrators Silver Medal • New York Public Library 100 Great Children’s Books for 100 Years • An American Library Association Notable Book</b><br><br>You may think you know the story of the Three Little Pigs and the Big Bad Wolf—but only one person knows the <i>real </i>story. That person is A. Wolf. His tale starts with a birthday cake for his dear old granny, a bad head cold . . . and a bad reputation. It ends in the Big House: the Pig Pen. What <i>really </i>happened when A. Wolf was at the door? Was it an historic pig out or a Mother Goose frame-up? You read it. You decide.<br><br>Jon Scieszka and Lane Smith combine their talents for droll tales and provocative reporting to bring the true story of this much maligned figure to the public. Big and Bad? Could be. Hilarious? Of course.
