Description

Once there was a little rabbit who did only what he wanted. When his mother asked him to tidy his room he cried,"Wooolf! The wolf is coming!" and, when she ran away, he did whatever he wanted. One day he did a wee where he wanted, and the wolf came to get him. "Wooolf!" he cried, but hismother didn't fall for that. The wolf got him! It was just Simon's father in a wolf mask. Simon promised never to cry wolf again. But when his mother opened the cupboard in the morning, a wolf cried "Awwoooo!" A funny new book with a twist ending in the worldwide bestselling series about Simon the cheeky rabbit.

Reviews

"Blake's instantly recognisable bold and expressive illustrations will delight young readers and the funny, charming story, with its gentle warnings about crying wolf, is guaranteed to strike a chord." * Lancashire Post * "A bold, simple, cartoony, comical take on the boy who cried 'Wolf!', with an unexpected twist." -- Sunday Times Culture "With its funny final twist and illustrations that leap off the page little rabbit style, this will certainly amuse little humans." -- Red Reading Hub "will be loved by all young readers, with its similar tone to the author's bestselling Poo Bum along with the empowering humour that Wooolf offers young children." -- Swings and Roundabouts, New Zealand
