Review: This was a book for my great nephew aged 5, and his mum read it to him as a bedtime story. It was her suggestion that I got him something in the fairytale line, although he actually likes David Walliams books! My leaf through the Walliams one I had thought of giving made me cringe - there's something a bit 'poovey' about them! Was Three Little Wolves too young for him? It is certainly a lot more innocent than the Walliams books, and I think, read as a bedtime story once, it went down well enough. It makes a change from violent solutions to problems with aggressive characters such as the Big Bad Pig, but perhaps some dads might find the flower house a bit too feminine! It is a delightful take on an old fairytale, and read well to a child, should be very enjoyable.

Review: GREAT book really recommend it for your little sons or daughters. The book has some very nice pictures. The idea of remaking the story from big bad wolf to big bad pig and adding new characters like the flamingo, beaver, rhino and kangaroo is a really good idea. I also like the idea of the pig using demolition tools instead of huffing and puffing, he did try to huff and puff as well, but didn’t work out for him. The sledge hammer was my favourite tool that he used to destroy the brick house. All in all it’s a nice book for adults and children to enjoy.
