|summary=A cheeky and fun take on big bad wolf fairy tales. Although there's one twist too many, the vibrant text and adorable illustrations make it well-worth a read. Warmly recommended.

Nadia Shireen's illustrations are excellent. They perfectly capture the spirit of the book: they're quirkily cute, cutely scary, endlessly funny and with a fresh style of their own. Rolf wouldn't be half such an appealing character with lesser illustrations. I can't wait to see what Nadia Shireen produces next. If it's as fun as ''Good Little Wolf'', we're in for a real treat. Warmly recommended.
My thanks to the publishers for sending it to Bookbag. We also have a review of [[The Bumblebear by Nadia Shireen]].
For straight-up fairy tales, take a look at [[Cinderella by Sally Gardner]]. For twists on fairy tales, take a look at [[Not Last Night But The Night Before by Colin McNaughton and Emma Chichester-Clark]], [[Me and You by Anthony Browne]], [[The Three Billy Goats Fluff by Rachael Mortimer and Liz Pichon]] and [[Instructions by Neil Gaiman]].
