Child, Lauren. 2000. BEWARE OF THE STORYBOOK WOLVES. New York:
Arthur A. Levine Books. ISBN 043920500
Story book wolves can be dangerous, especially when they escape from the story and are ready to gulp down little boys. This is the tale of one boy who is able to outsmart these dangerous wolves. His weapon of choice is fairy tales. He enlists the help of a fairy godmother and enabled by his knowledge of fairy tales is able to change the dangerous wolves into a ball attending princess and a caterpillar which is popped back into the story book. The bold illustrations in this story include bits of fabric collage which add texture and interest. The wolves are not terribly scary and this story will leave children with a fresh and humorous look at these menacing villains of fairy tales.
