This is a highly interactive, humorous picture book featuring the nervous Preston Pig and the constantly plotting Mister Wolf. The premise involves the reader becoming complicit in helping Preston evade the perpetually hungry Mr. Wolf, who is often lurking just around the corner, unaware that the reader is tipping off the pig. The narrative uses direct address and suspense to engage the child in the hide-and-seek game. Colin McNaughton crafts a very funny, dynamic read-aloud that celebrates quick thinking and the thrill of outsmarting the villain.
