The Troll Who Cried Wolf

4.1/5 ( ratings)

Fractured fairy tales meet modern day middle school in book two of this funny series for fans of Shrek and Timmy Failure.

Even after rescuing the king from deadly Snuffweasels, Zarf is scum on the bottom rung of the middle school social ladder. After all, he is still a troll. But when his best friend Kevin Littlepig is kidnapped as part of a dastardly plot to avenge the Big Bad Wolf . . . well, that’s a new low even for Zarf. A wolfish rebellion is brewing, and Little Red Ridinghood’s daughter is their next target . . . unless Zarf can get that troll brain of his to crank out a solution.

Award-winning comic creator Rob Harrell has middle-grade humor mastered. This second book in his Life of Zarf series is packed with even more witty one-liners and clever twists on classic folk and fairytales.
