Chicken Little is BACK! But this time, someone new is in town.
Chicken Little meets the BIG. BAD. WOLF! Chicken Little is NOT
afraid of anything, not even a wolf. No matter how big or bad he
is! In fact, she's never even seen a wolf. And this wolf is VEGAN!
So when a real wolf shows up and ruffles her feathers, what's a
fretful fowl to do? Join the frenzied flock and fly the coop? Or
find out if this newcomer is as bad as his reputation? The plucky
star of Chicken Little: The Real and Totally True Tale goes
toe-to-toe with literature's most famous villain in this brilliant
comedy spun with sly wisdom. A Sunday Times One to Watch Out For A
brilliantly funny follow-up to Chicken Little: The Real and Totally
True Tale. With a message at its core of acceptance and welcoming
new friends, this is a witty twist on the traditional 'big bad
wolf' trope. Another witty picture book from Sam Wedelich. Praise
for Chicken Little and the Big Bad Wolf"Plenty of humor... and the
message about difference and acceptance is entertainingly
delivered." -- Kirkus Reviews

LOVES it! So, when the three Billy Goats Gruff decide to clip clop
clip clop across the bridge, the troll is already imagining all the
scrumptious ways to fill his belly. But what if the troll is about
to underestimate those seemingly sweet goats... And bite off more
than he can chew! A story told with pitch perfect timing, pacing
and hilarious detail with Barnett's signature narrator voice, this
is Billy Goats Gruff as never before! Award-winning illustrator,
Jon Klassen, brings the story to life with his stunning visuals The
