Product Description

Mr Wolf fancies some pancakes but he doesn't know how to make them. Asking his neighbours is no use - they're a mean lot who refuse to help. Poor Mr Wolf has to work it out by himself. So what happens when these neighbours want to help Mr Wolf eat his delicious pancakes?

4.0 out of 5 stars gloriously funny, 19 Sep 2003
By Martin Talbot (London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
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.

5.0 out of 5 stars A delightful book for young children, 2 Oct 2000
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.

3.0 out of 5 stars Cute; leaves a smile., 8 Nov 2003
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

4.0 out of 5 stars My 4year old loves it
Even though she doesn't understand the sarcasm. I thought it could be a bit scary as Mr Wolf always eats up the others, but my daughter doesn't seem to be bothered.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the funniest books I have read for that age group
Very, very well written book. Excellent illustrations, wonderful story, and a brilliant ending. This is a book that does not patronise the reader.
