The Boy Who Cried Wolf by Tony Ross

The Boy Who Cried Wolf by Tony Ross

On one side of the mountain a wolf lives in the lap of luxury - on the other side lives a boy called Harry. Whenever Harry is made to do anything he doesn't like (such as washing or playing the violin), he distracts people by crying, 'Wolf!' even though the wolf is nowhere to be seen. Then one day the wolf really does jump out at Harry, except this time when Harry cries 'Wolf!' nobody takes any notice. . . A hilarious and quirky retelling of a famous fable, with an unexpected ending!

"This well-known Aesop's fable (with a twist) is told in Tony Ross's individually quirky style with his distinctive illustrations" * The Bookseller *
"There is absolutely no messing around in this picture book...In this bright book full of energy, mischief and movement, both Harry and the wolf get their just desserts." * Child Education *
"Tony Ross manages to convey expression and movement with such an economy of style" * Child Education Plus *
