Wally and Willy are on the lam again. But as Willimina and Wallanda, they're free and clear . . . or are they? These cleverly disguised wolves think they can fool an entire flock with their womanly wool-wear, but three savvy sheep expose their plan. It looks like another close shave for these baa-aad boys!

“The wordplay flies fast and thick throughout this text and it’s dead–on for a young audience. — Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books

She lives with her family in New Jersey.



Henry Cole was a celebrated science teacher for many years before turning his talents to children’s books. He has worked on nearly one hundred and fifty books for children, including Unspoken, Big Bug, A Nest for Celeste, Jack’s Garden, and On Meadowview Street.

Oh, but they most certainly are BAD BOYS.....so delightful watching them trying to fool the sheep!!! But they are the ones who get fooled in the end... a truly great story that all children of ALL ages will love!! A good one to read in conjunction with The Three Little Pigs and The True Story of the Three Little Pigs. The children will love the back and forth discussion of who is really bad in these stories!!

Bad Boys
Bad Boys is a very funny take on wolves in sheep's clothing. The author,Margie Palatini is able to keep both children and adults interested in the story even if you have read it 10 times. This is a very big plus when there are toddlers in the house. The illustrations are good too. We highly recommend this and other books by this author. Try EarthQuack,SweetTooth,Bed Head.You won't be disappointed.
