Editorial Reviews

School Library Journal
K-Gr 2-- In this light, silly adventure, a boy captured by a hungry wolf gives him bogus recipes for boy soup, boy stew, and boy cake, thereby devising a stay of execution. The wolf frantically retrieves the ingredients, always forgetting the salt. Finally overcome by exhaustion, he collapses and is bricked in by the child, who goes home happily to his mother. The hairy, leering, braces-sporting wolf is an entertaining contrast to the stolid, cheery boy. Full-color cartoon-style illustrations are barely contained by their borders on the pages, with all manner of ingredients spilling everywhere. Several double-paged spreads show aspects of the wolf's marketing expeditions, creating a sense of frenzy. The only tip-off that this title originated in England is the boy's supper at home--meat pie. Like that dish, this title may not be inspired, but it certainly is solid. --Carolyn Noah, Central Mass. Regional Library System, Worcester, MA
