About this title

Synopsis

The big bad wolf knows he rules the forest―but he likes to hear the others tell him so.

He marches through the woods, asking: “Tell me, who is the strongest?” Everyone, from Little Red Riding Hood to the Three Little Pigs to the Seven Dwarfs, agrees he is the strongest, the toughest, the terror of the woods. So when “a little toad of some sort” stands up to him, the wolf is furious―then quickly learns his lesson.

I Am So Strong is a great read-aloud for families and classrooms, and a delightful story for anyone who’s known an overconfident wolf.

“The wolf’s comeuppance is deeply satisfying; the only disappointment is that the book is over so soon. Better read it again.” Publishers Weekly

About the Author

Mario Ramos (1958–2012) was one of Belgium's most influential picture book makers. He was born in Brussels to a Belgian mother and a Portuguese father. From early on he was fascinated by how much a small drawing can transmit: "What interests me is to tell a story with pictures. With a pencil and paper, anything is possible." He studied graphic communication, discovering the influential drawings of Saul Steinberg and Tomi Ungerer, then worked in illustration, publishing his first book in 1992. Ramos has since had numerous books published all over the world, and his awards include the Prix Versèle and the Prix des Critiques en Belgique. His birthday, 7 November, is celebrated in France and Belgium as Mario Ramos Day.
