Ésta es la historia de un lobito muy bien educado. Sus padres le enseñaron a ser cortés con los demás. Cierto día sale al bosque a cazar por primera vez y atrapa a un conejo. Cuando está listo para devorarlo, el conejo le pide que le lea un cuento. Así pues, el cortés lobo va a su casa por un libro. Cuando vuelve, el conejo ya no está. Entonces caza a una gallina que le hace la misma jugarreta: pide como última voluntad que el lobito le cante una canción, pero también se escapa. ¡Pero qué falta de educación! ¿Por qué ninguno de los dos cumple sus promesas? Al final se confirma el dicho de que quien ríe al último ríe mejor.

This is the story of a very polite little wolf. His parents taught him to treat others with courtesy. One day, he goes to the forest to hunt for the first time and traps a rabbit. When he’s ready to devour it, the rabbit asks him to read him a story. The polite wolf goes home to get a book. When he comes back, the rabbit is gone. So he hunts a hen who pulls the same trick: she requests a song and manages to escape. How rude! Why don’t they keep their promises? In the end, the saying proves true: he who laughs last laughs best.

"This wicked gem of a story from Leroy and Maudet proves that manners matter, even when one isn't doing something terribly polite. . . . Maudet's airy, lighthearted cartooning bolsters the comic timing of Leroy's fablelike tale." —Publishers Weekly, starred review, on the English language edition

"A palette of rich reds, yellows and browns against plentiful white spaced pages contribute to this cockeyed tale of politeness gone awry. Klassen fans rejoice-another twisted ending!" —Booklist, starred review, on the English language edition
