When Preston the Pig puts on his red coat and sets off through the woods to visit his granny, Mr Wolf is reminded of a story, but he just can't remember what the story is and how it ends. Eventually, just as he is about to make off with Preston and Granny stuffed in his sack, the door swings open. . . . and Mr Wolf remembers what happens in LITTLE RED RIDING HOOD! Colin McNaughton's slapstick humour speaks directly to children's sense of fun and mischief. Both children and adults alike will delight in the comedy of this new story, and in the bold, colourful illustrations, full of incident and humour.
A little pig is walking down the street, unaware of the hungry wolf waiting around the corner, when SUDDENLY the pig remembers he has left something behind and turns away at the last second, leaving the wolf to fall flat on his face. The wolf pursues the little pig throughout the day, but each time, quite unaware, the pig evades him until in the end the wolf gets his come-uppance in an unexpected and hilarious way. SUDDENLY is an ideal book for young children, who will love the wicked humour and child-centred repetition.
