gloriously funny,

This review is from: Mr. Wolf's Pancakes (Mini picture books) (Paperback)
This is a wonderful book, clever, intelligent, and very funny.Suitable for any child from two upwards, it is the slight tale of Mr Wolf's attempts to make some pancakes, despite the rude lack of support from his friends around town, including the three little pigs, Mother hubbard et al. Delightfully illustrated, it subverts the image of big bad wolf, turning him into the victim, until the hilarious denoument which, on reading it for the first time, had me creasing up in laughter (which interrupted my daughter's bedtime story that night). Glorious, highly recommended. Buy it for a friend's child too.

A delightful book for young children,
By A Customer
This review is from: Mr.Wolf's Pancakes (Picture Mammoth) (Paperback)
Mr Wolf's Pancakes by Jan Fearnley takes traditional fairy tale characters and gives them a modern touch. Young children can easily identify with the problems Mr Wolf has making his pancakes...not being able to read...can't count his money.The ending is particularly unexpected! Wonderful illustrations really make you love Mr Wolf.

Cute; leaves a smile.,
This review is from: Mr.Wolf's Pancakes (Picture Mammoth) (Paperback)
Wolf wants to make pancakes. As he doesn't read well, count well or own a shopping basket so he politely asks for some help from his neighbours, the piggies, chicken licken, little red riding hood etc. But his neighbours are rude and refuse to help. We all know why, they have seen this chap somewhere before! Wolf manages to make his pancakes alone. Once the neighbours get a whiff of what's baking in Wolf's house they go over and demand some food. Well, Wolf eats up all his pancakes and...... Cute little story if not a little hurried. Children might need some reminding where else they know wolf from. Worth having for the children (3 to 7 year olds) Not a jewel of a find but nor a dissapointment. To buy or not to buy? Buy
