Description
A fairytale from picture-book legend, Anthony Browne.
"Once upon a time in the days when wolves roamed the land, there lived three boys, who one day wandered deep into the woods and came across a little cottage they'd never seen before..."
They think that maybe a witch lives in the cottage - at first they are curious, but soon they start to tease the inhabitant, with surprising consequences...
Exploring bullying, peer pressure and making assumptions, this new tale weaves an empathetic moral among stunning artwork and storytelling.
