About this ebook
A ‘Little Wolf’ special for committed fans and new recruits as Little Wolf becomes ‘agony nephew’ for WolfWeekly.
A 64 page paperback original Little Wolf title for all Little Wolf fans and fledglings. Little Wolf is given the job of being ‘agony nephew’, taking on the name Mister Helpful, for Wolf Weekly. Every week his postbag is full of problem letters from many of the brute beasts and little wigglers he has already met in his adventures chronicled in Book of Badness, Daring Deeds and Haunted Hall for Small Horrors. When a certain Akela writes to him looking for a young cub called Little Wolf, Mister Helpful reverts to being Little Wolf and joins the cubscouts at camp. Little Wolf’s answers the readers’ letters with his usual mix of cheek, fun, bad spelling and inkblots.
This ‘arkstra spesh’ Little Wolf title will delight his many fans but, more importantly, will serve as an introduction to new readers and have them howling for his three epistolary novels Little Wolf’s Book of Badness; Little Wolf’s Diary of Daring Deeds and Little Wolf’s Haunted Hall for Small Horrors.

Little Wolf’s Postbag - Ian Whybrow
Dear Mr Little Wolf,
We have not met before, harrumph, but I feel I must write to you. At Wolf Weekly we keep getting letters from readers with problems, dash it. I am far too lupine and snappish to write back, but I have reason to believe that you are just the brute beast for the job. Sit up straight and read on, then you will find out why.
This morning, a very small wolfcub entered my office wearing a mask. He had a water pistol and informed me that he would make the papers on my desk all crinkly unless I gave him a toffee apple. Grrrumph.
This small wolfcub was wearing his sailor suit inside out, so it was a simple matter to read the name-tag on it. The name was one I think you know well: Smellybreff, your little brother. Pest! (Temper, you see. Snappishness. Can’t help it.)
When I spoke to the small beast by his name, I suggested something that his parents might do if they found out that his hobby was being a highwayman. The result was that he howled his head off, threw himself on his back and had a noisy tantrum. He claimed (while damaging my office floor with his head and heels) that it was all your fault. He claims (I quote): ‘Little is always making me be a robber plus post his letters all the time. He says if I don’t, he will put sauce on my ted and eat him, then make me have a bath’. And to prove it, he pulled out a wet and somewhat chewed envelope from his pocket.
Thanks to Smellybreff’s dribble, the gum on the envelope had lost its grip. My curiosity was aroused and I was unable to resist opening the letter and
