I, The Wolf, am sick of being the bad guy. I'm taking over this book. Dear Readers, Fairytales are nonsense. They're full of wolves pestering pigs and picking on sweet little girls in red hoods. But I would never do those things. I knit! I bake blueberry pie! You know what I really want to do? I Want to rescue a princess! And if I can't? I quit! Yours sincerely, Wolfie Wolfie may want to be a hero, but he's about to discover that arguing with this book's narrator is not the best way to improve his image...
