(4) K-3 Retold by Janet Schulman. Illustrated by Peter Malone. In detailed paintings a surprisingly mature Peter and his animal friends cleverly capture the threatening wolf, as usual. But in a "kinder" ending, the now-repentant wolf is led back to the forest, coughing up the live duck along the way. Portraits on endpapers nicely pair the animals with the instrument representing them. A narrated CD is included.
