“The best way to treat obstacles is to use them as stepping-stones. Laugh at them, tread on them, and let them lead you to something better.”
Wolf Won't Bite! can be used in the classroom to discuss themes of friendship and bravery while engaging students with its humor. The story also serves as a great read-aloud option to spark discussions about character perspectives and fairy tale conventions.
pickWolf Won't Bite! by Emily Gravett is a humorous tale that turns fairy tale expectations on their head. When a little rabbit visits a wolf who promises not to bite, the story unfolds with suspense and comedy. The bright illustrations and witty dialogue keep young readers engaged. Overall, it‘s a fun twist on the traditional wolf character, highlighting themes of bravery and friendship.
pickI‘m particularly nostalgic for circuses and carnivals and experiencing them as an adult still strikes me with wonder. So I‘m an easily-to-please target for this book…but I swear it‘s both informative and entertaining. It‘s especially fun once we meet the characters of Barnum and Bailey. It‘s interesting to learn about the mergers and how the circus changed over time. My favorite moments were the side stories about the performers and their acts.

2. I have an ornate hierarchy of coffee mugs that govern which I'll choose in any given situation.
3. I refuse to watch movies based on books unless I've read the book first.
pickThis was a fast and interesting read as I honestly didn't know much about this man...unless a semi-autobiographical musical staring Hugh Jackman counts.
