Synopsis: This is a hilarious twist of the popular story "The Boy Who Cried Wolf." Foods like "Lamburgers," "Sloppy Does," and "Granny Smith Pies" suggest that when the wolf cries "Boy!" he may be ringing the dinner bell!

Discussion topics: To be posted soon ...

Craft ideas:
•  Make a recipe sheet for your favorite wolf recipes, and illustrate.
•  Make a hat like Little Wolf's, and draw pictures from the story on it.

*Note: These craft ideas are just suggestions. You can use them, but you don't have to use them. You can expand upon them, or add your own twist. Remember, though, that the focus of your time should not be on the development and execution of a craft; the focus should be on the read-aloud and the enjoyment of the book!
