Great for age 3-6 years

This is the deep dark wood. Everyone knows it's no place to go for a stroll. There are monsters and trolls and giants everywhere, not to mention the Big Bad Wolf!

Wait a minute! What's that sweet little girl doing in the deep dark wood? Doesn't she know it's DANGEROUS here? The Big Bad Wolf will gobble her up for his lunch!

But this deep dark wood is full of twists and turns, and all is not quite what it seems. The Big Bad Wolf is about to get a big, bad surprise...

A monstrously funny mixed-up fairytale with an unexpected twist!
