Wolf just can't catch a break! Ever since the three little pigs started teaching everyone Ninja skills at the end of The Three Ninja Pigs, huffing and puffing just hasn't been enough to scare up a good meal. In fact, every time he tries, he ends up being bested by their martial arts skills! His craving for meat sends Wolf to classes at the dojo, and soon he's ready to try out his new moves.
A little girl and her tiny granny should be easy targets — right? Not if Little Red has anything to say about it! Kiya! Rollicking rhyme and dynamic illustrations combine in this twisted fairy tale that ends with Red finding a clever way to ensure Wolf neither eats other animals nor goes hungry.

"Children will gravitate to the rhyming text and exciting illustrations, created by Sumi brush work on rice paper. Speech bubbles and dialogue further enhance the story. The characters' facial expressions and body language will have kids laughing as Red and Wolf each try to best the other. A fun read-aloud, but also great for independent reading." — Amy Shepherd, School Library Journal
