Have you ever wondered why the Mean Old Witch is mean? Or why the Big Bad Wolf is bad?

They weren’t always that way… The Big Bad Wolf used to be small and sweet. But when a witch was mean to him, everything changed …

The Mean Old Witch used to be young and kind, singing to the birds and picking up litter, until an unfortunate encounter with a Horrible Stinky Troll …

Discover how unkind words and actions can have consequences – and how a simple apology has the magical power to transform everything!

The magical new picture book from award-winning children’s book creator Leigh Hodgkinson and exciting emerging illustrator Adam Ming.
