About this product
Product Information
In this fractured fairy tale mash-up that explains the Jewish holiday of Yom Kippur, Bid Bad Wolf struggles to understand whether he has the capacity for change, and in the process discovers friendship among those he once thought of only as tasty snacks. Wolf wondered: Could he become better and brighter? When Racoon invites the Big Bad Wolf to Yom Kippur services, Wolf agrees to go. While he is there, he hears how everyone can use Yom Kippur as a day to become better and brighter. Wolf's not so sure...a big bad wolf can't become good! Can he? Will helping the girl in a red hood, her granny, and the three little pigs show him the way? It is a regular morning, and Big Bad Wolf is just getting ready for another day full of bad, when something very different happens. Raccoon knocks on his door to apologize for rummaging through his garbage and invites him to synagogue services. What first appears to Wolf as an opportunity for a giant lunch buffet becomes, instead, an opportunity for Wolf to experience a change of heart. Warmly welcomed by the rabbi, who claims anyone can become better and brighter just like the leaves in the forest as they change color in the fall, Wolf, wrapped in a peaceful moment, begins to wonder if he could do the same. He spends the day helping Little Red Riding Hood take care of her sick grandmother (even though he'd rather eat them both) and showing the three little pigs how to make their houses stronger. Despite the new feelings these kindnesses give him, deep down he doesn't believe a wolf can change, because he keeps making mistakes. But as the day ends, his new friends arrive with a feast to break their Yom Kippur fast and they want to share it with their helper, partner and friend, a Big GOOD Wolf. Sharp, sly illustrations envelop this gently fractured fairy tale in humor and warmth, while the story includes many details that help explain Yom Kippur practices to young readers as they discover we can all return to our best selves, beginning with kindness and heartfelt apologies.

On the Day of Atonement, the Big Bad Wolf reflects. It's Yom Kippur, and the Big Bad Wolf is preparing to bebad. Things start changing at the synagogue, where he concedes a hug feels niceand almost sings along with the others. Hearing the rabbi's sermon, Wolfwonders if he can become "better and brighter." After services, Wolf encountersfamiliar story characters: a red-hooded girl and her grandmother, whom hetreats kindly, and a porcine trio to whom he gives sensible home-buildingadvice. What's happened? Wolf's worst instincts repeatedly try to surface, butthey're defeated by his much-improved nature, and it becomes clear that theformerly Big Bad Wolf has evolved into a much nicer lupine. That evening, afterthe holiday is over, the Big Good Wolf is rewarded by his grateful newfoundfriends. This sweet, humorous tale conveys the meaning of this important Jewishholiday in a way that's understandable for children. Its premise proves it'seasy to err on the side of good; each of us has kindness within, and it'ssatisfying to let it show . The fractured-fairy-tale motif will engage youngreaders and also makes familiar literary sense, as the Big Bad Wolf, naturally,is the antagonist of both "Little Red Riding Hood" and "The Three Little Pigs." The illustrations are comical and dynamic; Wolf and all other animal charactersare riotously expressive. Bespectacled Little Red and Granny are pale-skinned. (Thisbook was reviewed digitally.) A solemn holiday is given an appealing, entertainingtreatment well suited to young kids.

Heattends synagogue hoping that having so many of his friends in one placewill make for a giant, tasty meal. When he arrives, the warmth and friendlinessof the rabbi and cantor are surprisingly appealing. He listens to therabbi's inspirational speech and begins to think about being kinder to others.When he meets Little Red Riding Hood on her way to Grandmother's house, hehas many opportunities to be helpful. When he meets the Three Little Pigs,he assists them in building a secure home. He struggles all day with hisevil inclinations, but the desire to be good outweighs them. As Yom Kippur ends,the Big Bad Wolf finds that Little Red Riding Hood and the Three Little Pigshave prepared a tasty, after-the-fast meal at his home--and he begins tounderstand the benefits of friendship. He focuses on improving his outlookand behavior in the future. Amusing and colorful illustrations depict the animalcharacters with a charming range of facial expressions. An author'snote provides more information about Yom Kippur and the efforts one canmake to be a better, kinder person. This creative approach to teachingchildren about Yom Kippur and introspection can lead to further conversationsabout the people they hope to become as they grow up. --The Jewish Book Council, On the Day of Atonement, the Big Bad Wolf reflects.

Book was listed as 'very good' condition, but when it arrived the cover had stains, creases and folds, and a small tear on one edge. It was packaged ok and the packaging was not damaged, so this was not something that happened during shipping. I messaged them and they replied quickly and instructed me to initiate a return through eBay. I was refunded the full price in less than an hour. Great customer service!
