Little Wolf's Book of Badness (Little Wolf Adventures)

by Ian Whybrow (Author) Tony Ross (Illustrator)

Reading Level: 4th − 5th Grade
Little Wolf has been brushing his teeth without being growled at, he's been going to bed early, and he's been far too nice to his baby brother, Smellybreff. His parents, concerned they will never make a beast of him, send Little Wolf off to Cunning College, where his Uncle Bigbad instructs timid cubs in the rules of badness. Will Little Wolf earn his BAD badge? Or will his uncle Bigbad HUFF and PUFF and turn Little Wolf into a sausage sandwich?

Kirkus

Plenty of blots, scratch-outs and simple pen-and-ink drawings give Little Wolf’s letters a suitably disheveled look; readers afflicted with delicate sensitivities need not apply, but fans of Dav Pilkey’s Captain Underpants will be heartily amused by this broad British farce. (Fiction. 9-11)

Review quotes

..".Written in a style somewhere between A. A. Milne's Winnie the Pooh and Dav Pilkey's The Adventures of Captain Underpants (Scholastic, 1997)... Successful as comedy, fractured fairy tale, and coming-of-age story all in one, Little Wolf's Book of Badness is terrific."
