Description
Wolfboy is NOT afraid of the Grumble Monster. He's just in a hurry to get home.
Except . . . the rabbits should go first. Wolfboy needs to watch their backs after all! Wait, are those monster claws? Are those monster eyes? Maybe Wolfboy IS scared!
With bold, bright art, Wolfboy Is Scared hilariously encapsulates how fear itself can be scarier than any monster!

Reviews / Votes
Readers will feel like they have a front-row seat to a marvelously imagined and sculpted toy theater. * Publishers Weekly on Wolfboy * An aesthetic that sets this book apart from others in its achievement of a layered, cinematic feel. . . . Throughout, artful, expressive typography contributes to the overall success of the picture book, guiding the reader's voice to deliver a dynamic read-aloud that matches the visual drama of the art. A read-aloud treat for hungry audiences. * Kirkus Reviews on Wolfboy * The text is delightful and simple, using repetitive variations that naturally encourage participation in read-aloud settings, but it's the exceptional artwork that truly makes this a masterpiece. . . . An imaginative and completely immersive reading adventure. * Booklist on Wolfboy * We thoroughly enjoyed this book and will be looking out for more books by the author in the future. It's a fun book which can reach children of different ages on different levels * Toddle About on Wolfboy *More details
