Its never easy going on a bear hunt, as the five prospective
hunters soon find out. On a beautiful day, four children and their
dad cross a field of long grass, wade through a deep cold river ...
and into a narrow cave. They say they're not scared... But whats
that fearful creature looming up ahead?
A subversive and hilarious spin on the well-loved fairy tale. The
three little wolves erect first a solid brick house. The big bad
pig comes along and when huffing and puffing fails to work, he uses
a sledgehammer to bring the house down. Next they build a home of
concrete: The pig demolishes it with his pneumatic drill. The three
little wolves choose an even stronger design next time round: They
erect a house, made of steel, barbed wire, armor plates and video
entry system, but the pig finds a way to demolish it too. It is
only when the wolves construct a rather fragile house made of
cherry blossoms, daffodils, pink roses, and marigolds that the pig
has a change of heart ... A great read for children who enjoyed The
Wolf's Story by Toby Forward. Kids aged 5 and up will enjoy this
hilarious, subversive and brilliant read aloud picture book. Eugene
Trivizas's text for The Three Little Wolves and the Big Bad Pig is
perfectly complemented by Helen Oxenbury's watercolour
illustrations. Eugene Trivizas has written over 100 books and is
the winner of more than twenty national and international prizes
and awards. His work has been adapted for stage, screen and radio.
Helen Oxenbury's warm and witty illustrations have charmed children
and adults alike for many years. Her version of Alice in
Wonderland, published by Walker Books, won the 2001 Kate Greenaway
Award, which she first won in 1969 for The Quangle Wangle's Hat.
She has also won the Smarties Book Prize three times.

gift for a new arrival!

bestselling illustrator of Ten Little Fingers and Ten Little Toes
Jack, Zack, and Caspar are building a ship-on the beach, out of
sand. When they set sail on their imaginary adventure, Jack spies
an enemy pirate ship nearby. They chase after the pirates, but a
storm wrecks their ship and sweeps them up on a desert island. The
island isn't totally deserted, though-their pirate enemies are
there too. Just as the boys discover the pirates' treasure (an
array of delicious desserts), the pirates (their parents) capture
them. But these pirates are friendly-they're willing to share the
treasure, and they throw in some ice cream just for good measure!
Perfect for storytime read-alouds, this picture book is just right
for fans of Three Bears in a Boat, How I Became a Pirate, and We're
Going on a Bear Hunt.
