Illustrated by
Melissa Iwai.
Through round cutouts we see pointy ears, shiny eyes, and other scary characteristics people fear about the Big Bad Wolf, but as the pages turn, we also see they're just part of being a wolf, and this one is a devoted father and husband. Kids will enjoy the amusing twist on a familiar villain, the effective die-cuts, and appropriately simple illustrations.
