When a Wolf Is Hungry

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Kris Di Giacomo. One day, a woods-dwelling wolf has every ambition to eat a "city bunny," but each time he tries to get to his prey's door, its fellow apartment dwellers inadvertently thwart him (by borrowing his rabbit-killing knife to slice a cake, etc.). The French-import story, whose meticulous illustrations accommodate humor and menace, is a whip-smart merger of fairy-tale motifs and modern-day mores.
