As a 'Careers Manual' for hungry wolves this latest picture book in the Preston Pig series more than lives up to its predecessors. Hungry Mister Wolf is encouraged by Preston Pig to seek gainful employment. Preston's good advice is seen as having totally different outcomes when looked at through Mister Wolf's eyes --- with all careers ending with a 'piggy sticky end' as one young reviewer put it! There is little to add other than to say that the McNaughton formula delivers -- yet again!
