Description: Based on a French folktale, this story follows a woodcutter's family who cleverly outsmarts a wolf that has snuck into their village. When danger or unexpected trouble arises, quick wit saves the day. Though the story structure is simple and concise, the bold, free-flowing sketches and pen strokes bring the tale to vivid life.
