Watch out For Wolfgang by Paul Carrick - ADVISABLE

Watch out For Wolfgang by Paul Carrick. PICTURE BOOK. Charlesbridge, 2009. $17. 

EL (K-3) - ADVISABLE

Once there was a mom robot who created three robots. When the three robots were all assembled she sent them out into the world with a little bit of money to build their own factories. Rod liked things clean and neat and well-kept. Slick was obsessed with himself and liked everything to revolve around him. Dudley made funny sounds when he walked and looked rusty and always had an odd way of doing things. Which one of these characters will be the one to defeat the big bad recycling robot? How will they accomplish it?

This interesting retelling of The Three Little Pigs will grab kids through its unique style of writing and the unusual characters it has in it. With a little bit of humor and a whole lot of robots, this book is perfect for reluctant readers and avid readers. This book would make a great addition to anyone’s collection.
