A te reo Māori translation of an enduringly popular picture book in which the big bad wolf gets an unexpected and satisfying taste of his own medicine.

 

The big bad wolf knows he rules the forest—but he likes to hear the others tell him so. He marches through the woods, asking: “Tell me, who is the strongest?” Everyone, from Little Red Riding Hood to the Three Little Pigs to the Seven Dwarfs, agrees he is the strongest, the toughest, the terror of the woods. So when “a little toad of some sort” stands up to him, the wolf is furious—then quickly learns his lesson.

 

This translation of an internationally bestselling picture book has expansive language, irresistibly cheeky characters and a sparky humour that will resonate with readers of te reo Māori—a great read-aloud for classrooms and families and a delightful story for anyone who’s known an overconfident wolf.
