Illustrated by
Matthieu Maudet.
A hungry young wolf well-versed in manners goes hunting alone in the forest for the first time with net in hand. The gullible predator falls for his captives' last wishes, allowing their escapes until a boy--who also has good manners--unwittingly leads the wolf back to his previous prey. The flat, graphic design of this tongue-in-cheek French import includes mustard-hued illustrations and speech bubble dialogue.
