LITTLE BAD WOLF is a novel aimed for children who like adventures where the hero faces huge even unfair challenges but will win in the end with humour and determination. More than anything Little Bad Wolf wanted to see her father again. He was in prison for nothing other than being a wolf. In order to get him released she would just have to convince the Judge he was not dangerous. That would be easy. The hard part was that she would have to learn to speak in human language in order to convince the judge. However, Little Bad Wolf is not the sort of animal to let the fact that something is close to impossible get in her way. She learns English through listening to pop music and has almost got to grips with it when she faces a local farmer pointing a shot-gun at her. She gets through this and gets accepted into the village school. Shortly after this some parents start demanding she has to go. Each time Little Bad Wolf climbs a hill she discovers a mountain has been put in her way.
