Watch Out for Wolfgang by Paul Carrick
Watch Out for Wolfgang, by Paul Carrick, reviewed by Jennie Tuttle, Children’s Department, Wickes Library (Charlesbridge Publishing, 2009, $16.95, unpaged)
Recommended for ages 4-8.
Old Mother Robot sends her three little robots out in the world with a warning to build their factories big and strong so they are safe from Wolfgang the Recycler. Rod builds a solid factory like his mother’s. Slick’s factory is custom-made with all the latest gadgets. Heaping piles of mud make up the youngest brother Dudley’s home. In this twist on a classic tale, Paul Carrick points out that it isn’t always the sharpest or shiniest tool that gets the job done.
