As the hungry wolf descends on the farm, he is surprised to find that the animals there are well educated and even a little snobbish. The only way for the wolf to get into the farm is to learn how to read. With hard work and determination will he reach his goal to become a great story-teller?
In this picture the wolf is running along away from the binding, on his hind legs, with his front legs held up in the air, rather like a person a real wolf could never do this. See if you can find his two hind legs at the bottom of the page. Can you find three toes on each foot with a sharp claw at the end of each? He is running along so the leg on the right, which is stretching out in front of him, feels very different to the leg on the left, which is supporting his weight. Streaming out behind him on the left of the picture, feel his dark grey bushy tail.
