This book holds the reader’s attention with its different format, similar to Let’s Pretend This Never Happened and Diary of a Wimpy Kid. However, the crazy antics of Little Wolf’s adventures can’t compare to those of Clementine, Moxy, or Eddice Dickens. This fractured fairytale, with its explosion of originality, may draw in some readers from the fantasy and folklore genre, but not the over powering popularity of the realistic fiction audience among beginning readers. Overall Whybrow’s story is cute, entertaining, and occasionally giggle-worthy and a good start to the other Little Wolf books.

I was reading a story about some elite-type school using this book with a small group, so I decided to check it out. I had not heard of it, nor was I aware that it had been made into a video, or that there are sequels. I am not the intended audience; to me it was a bit tedious, and the "cuteness" wore off long before the end.

Can anybody tell me a couple of words that might describe the Big Bad Wolf?
You know – the one from Little Red Riding Hood.

Those sounds great – so, any wolf in the Big Bad family should probably act the same way, right? They should be mean, eat little girls and their grandmothers, and generally just nasty.
Well…………..
Meet Little Wolf. He’s… not bad. Not bad at all. But, with an uncle like Bigbad, Little’s family thinks maybe he can learn. Little Wolf’s Book of Badness is Little’s diary – first as he walks from his home to Uncle BigBad’s Cunning College for Brute Beasts – and then as he is kicked out of the school for… well – not for being bad, that’s for sure.
If you like fairy tales – and fractured fairy tales – you’ll love reading Little Wolf’s Big Book of Badness by Ian Whybrow.
