No one understands Wolfie at school. But then Penguin comes along... and she does understand. Suddenly things start to get a whole lot better. This is a story about how when you're feeling misunderstood, sometimes all it takes to change your perspective completely, is a like-minded friend.A wonderful, and relatable story about the loneliness that comes with feeling grumpy and how a friend can give a rain cloud day, a sunny new spin.

An unseen narrator goes head-to-head with the big bad wolf in this hilarious counting-book twist on The Three Little Pigs.Once upon a time, there were three little pigs.Then the wolf ate them.THE END. This story is too short! I want a longer one! In this clever counting book, the big bad wolf doesn't want to tell a long story. He wants to get to the eating part. But the narrator has other ideas. From a pig soccer team to a pig for every letter of the alphabet to 101 pigs in an animated movie, the stories get more and more fantastical . . . but they're always too short and they ALL end the same way. Using an abacus as the basis for her illustrations, Marianna creates beguiling little pigs and a menacing but slightly bored wolf that perfectly complement the inventive story by Davide Cali. Come for the counting, stay for the storytelling! This book has it all.
