As a distant howl echoes through the forest, animals quickly stop what they're doing and run for home. Look out—Wolf's coming! As the shadowy figure gets closer and closer and the day draws to a close, the animals shut the door, pull the shades, and turn out the lights. Soon the wolf's glowing eyes appear at the window and the front door opens . . . But things are not as they seem in this suspenseful, clever story, and it's the reader who's in for the biggest surprise of all!

      Starred review from July 1, 2007
      PreS-Gr 1-Suspense builds from the very first page of this new twist on the not-such-a-big-bad-wolf theme. The simple rhyming text describes the various ways in which the denizens of the forest prepare for Wolf's imminent arrival. With a powerful sense of impending doom, the absurdly anthropomorphized creatures frantically leap into action, ostensibly to protect their young: "Closer, CLOSER./Next to me./Pull the shade/so he can't see./WOLF'S COMING!" The ending will bring a huge sigh of comic relief as the reason for all the preparation is revealed. Saturated with color, the cartoonlike illustrations depict characters that are more human than animal, but will likely appeal to young children. With each turn of the page, the pictures grow progressively darker, helping to create and sustain the intended mood."Debbie Lewis O'Donnell, Alachua County Library District, Gainesville, FL"
