I really liked this book. The story was fun, the illustrations were so simple, but great! And there was the right amount of humor in it.

Cute and funny story about a little boy and the big bad wolf. The wolf doesn't scare people anymore and so moves into the boy's closet. They hang out and the wolf practices being scary.

I really enjoyed this book. I think it would be great for kids who are right before being introduced to chapter books. The book is set up in chapters but it is still very much so a picture book. The book also resembled a comic because there were multiple illustrations on one page and each illustration usually had some dialogue. My favorite part about the book was the humor in it. The whole time the boy wanted to call the wold Zorro but his real name was Bernard. At the end the boy said if he ever had a dog he would name it Bernard. I thought this was a sweet ending but also very funny. I liked that it The only downside to this book is that the illustrations are very small, which means that it would be hard to read to a classroom because the kids would not be able to see the pictures, and this is what most of the book is based on. I really enjoyed the book but I am sure there are better witty children's books out there.

This book is an interesting take on kids being afraid of things. The wolf in the story is not scary at all (in fact, he doesn't even eat meat) so the little boy has to teach him how to do it.

I love the concept and the writing. Just wish the pictures were bigger--some of the text is in such a tiny font, you almost need a magnifying glass to see it. This is a picture book for older kids--it has 12 short little chapters. Would be fun to read something like this after reading some fairy tales with scary wolves.

CIP: "When the Big Bad Wolf is mistaken for a dog, he comes to live in a boy's closet and eat chocolate chip cookies."

What would you do if the Big Bad Wolf came home to live with you? Would you share your cookies and let him sleep in your bedroom closet? That's just what one boy did while helping the Wolf work on his self-confidence. A fun, easy read with clear but simple pictures that help guide the delightful story along. A great choice for ages 7 through 12, but keep in mind that it also made this 30-something reviewer laugh out loud.

PRW and Booklist both gave favorable reviews.

line drawings drive the engaging story as a relationship between the boy and the wolf unfolds.

THE BIG BAD WOLF AND ME is an adorable sort of fairy tale re-telling, of the idea of the classic wolf from numerous famed fairy tales. Perret and Rowan have found a clever way to take a well know but one dimensional character and modernize him by expanding his story. I read this to my 4 year old twin boys tonight before bed and they absolutely loved it as did I. The wolf comes to life in story as well as in the fantastic little illustrations. What a fun book… Well done!

This book consists of 11 graphic-novel-esque chapters that will appeal to kids who are interested in comic books but not quite there yet. The story is told in simple line drawings and witty dialogue between a boy and the big, bad wolf. Except that when the boy stumbles across the big, bad wolf on his way home from school, the wolf is sad and hungry and not all that scary. But no fear, because boy takes wolf under his wing, feeds him lots of chocolate chip cookies and tries to bring the bad out of him! I like the author's sense of humor and think it is one that children and adults can both share and appreciate together.

This is a great, simple book. I laughed out loud (at the gym) when I got to the end. I won't spoil the reason, but it is a great and funny lesson about finding your purpose and when you do, doing it to the best of your ability. I LOVED THIS BOOK!
