The Wolf Who Cried Boy takes a twist on the classic fable, The Boy Who Cried Wolf. This book is about a wolf who wants to eat a boy, and keeps telling his parents that there is a boy near by. Eventually his parents do not believe him and when a boy really does come his parents do not believe him. The illustrations in this book are in colored pencil, are very detailed, and aid in the visual aspect of the story.
I would use this book to teach about how there are different versions of many books. we would read both books and then use a venn digraph to compare and contrast the two stories.
