Have you ever lost your temper?  The Scallywags are always in trouble for losing theirs.  But this time, the wolves finally meet their match...


Review:
Being the proud owner of a 2.5 year old who has learnt all about the art of tantruming, and is quickly learning how to boss his 8 month old brother around, this book came at an ideal time - the gist of the story is a bunch of wolves that argue with each other, but then end up being bossed around by a little sheep, and realise how unpleasant it is to others when they lose their temper.

This story had my son laughing, but then afterwards, we were able to talk about how it's not nice to be in a grump, and what we can do instead of having a tantrum in different situations.

If you're interested in buying a copy of this book, you can find it here at Fishpond.

My rating: 4 out of 5 - a good book, which my son really enjoyed over and over.
