In I am So Strong, the incorrigible wolf saunters through the forest asking everyone he meets - including Little Red Riding Hood and The Three Little Pigs: 'Tell me, who is the strongest of all?' He gets his comeuppance in a most unexpected and satisfactory way.

Reviews"It has an ending you can't help but laugh at, and a real charm with superb illustrations matching this enjoyable story." -- Tomorrow's Schools Today "The text is very funny, and there's the patterning that comes in all the best children's stories. The wolf is full of hubris and is asking all the characters from fairy tales... 'Who is the strongest?'" -- Kate de Goldi, National Radio Excellent illustration, great humor and refreshingly stylish text. -- New York Times Review of Books.
