Little Wolf, Forest Detective
A fifth title [fourth novel] about Little Wolf as he and his friends set up the Yelloweyes Forest Detective Agency.
The fourth novel about Little Wolf, his cousin Yeller, baby brother Smellybreff, Stubbs Crow and Normus Bear who set up the Yelloweyes Forest Detective Agency . Following the departure of their main teacher and star attraction of Haunted Hall for Small Horrors, Little and chums close the school to become forest detectives. Their specialities are tracking and trailing with Stubbs Crow being the flying squad; Smellbreff specialising in small clues and Normus Bear specialising in large clues. Written in letter form by Little Wolf, who specialises in appalling spelling, this novel is sure to follow in the footsteps of the previous 3 in delighting young and older readers. Sales of the previous titles exceed 100,000 copies [including huge sales in last year’s Books for Schools campaign] and the books have been translated into ten languages and are now published in the USA too.
Until August 2000, Ian Whybrow was a teacher and Head of Sixth Form at the John Lyon School in Harrow. Now a full-time author, he specialises in writing humour and this is reflected in his Little Wolf titles as well as his picture books for Collins [Where’s Tim’s Ted] and other publishers. His wife, Anne, is also a teacher and one of his daughters is Lucy Whybrow, the actress.
