Big Red and the Little Bitty Wolf is a picture book story about a small wolf who encounters a big problem on the way to school. Big Red Riding Hood has just moved into the neighbourhood and she loves nothing more than tormenting the Little Bitty Wolf. He feels helpless and hopeless - nothing seems to make Big Red stop bothering him. He tries ignoring her, telling her to stop, and puffing himself up to look bigger, but it takes something unexpected to make Big Red stop.

Big Red and the Little Bitty Wolf, a modern twist on the classic tale in which a little wolf's unexpected solution to the class bully is met with surprising success. The book talks about bullying, and what to do / how to find help (school counsellor) should you need to.

Features a note to parents by school psychologist, Elizabeth McCallum, PhD.

"This is a perfect topic for the beginning of the school year and a way to engage students in a discussion about how they treat each other! Big Red and the Little Bitty Wolf is an excellent resource for teaching children good emotional techniques and to stand up for what is right."
- Children's Books Heal

"The text's nonintimidating, gentle tone, paired with playful, bright, and inviting illustrations, is certain to inspire a more in-depth discussion in the classroom or during one-on-one sharing about bullying…Caregivers and educators will appreciate the constructive message that this fractured fairy tale has to offer on the subject of bullying."
