About The Baddest Wolf of All?:

Although he sometimes doubts himself, everyone around Wolf expects him to be BIG and, especially, BAD. Deciding to live up to his name and get really, really good at being really, really bad, he seeks some help from another famous baddie. His new badness coach, the Evil Queen, instructs Wolf to bring a poisoned apple to Snow White. Easy, Wolf thinks. He just needs to disguise himself as a sweet granny, and Snow White will let him right in! But Snow White is so very kind to Wolf-as-Granny. They have fun together, laugh, and become friends. What sort of Big Bad Wolf is he becoming? Perhaps this journey to being bad isn't what he wants after all… Kids will embrace another Big Bad Wolf fractured fairy tale adventure.

When wolves disappeared from Yellowstone Park in the 1930s, the ecosystem started to collapse. Enormous herds of elk swarmed the plains, bears starved, rabbit families shrunk and birds flew away to new homes. Plants vanished, trees withered and rivers meandered. Until in 1995, wolves returned to the park and everything began to change for the better. This is the story of their homecoming.
