Clever, funny plot. The two main characters will give readers of all ages lots of chuckles. The illustrations are fabulous. The bad boys as girl sheep are hysterical. Great cover. That illustration makes you laugh even before you open the book. My boys loved it.

I'm ordering Bad Boys for all my friends, especially the ones between the ages of 30 and 88! Yeah, I'll get one for my classroom too, but I suspect most of the giggles will be with my friends Merle and Betty!

This book has it all, in my opinion, great vocabulary, cute plot, funny characters. Even if the kids don't understand who Meryl Sheep is, the grown-up reading it will get a kick out of it and all the other word-play going on!

This is one of the worst kids' books I've ever read. Bad puns, blah illustrations, overly repetitive, not clever or witty or funny at all. The ending is especially terrible.

Bad Boys

Bad Boys is a very funny take on wolves in sheep's clothing. The author,Margie Palatini is able to keep both children and adults interested in the story even if you have read it 10 times. This is a very big plus when there are toddlers in the house. The illustrations are good too. We highly recommend this and other books by this author. Try EarthQuack,SweetTooth,Bed Head.You won't be disappointed.

Willy and Wally are two bad wolves out to infiltrate a flock of sheep, disguised as Willamina and Wallanda so they could hide from the law!

Of course, they are "exposed" by a surprise sheep-sheering, and Willy and Wally will have to wait for those bad haircuts to grow out before they can try any new tricks again.

Children will adore this wonderfully funny book, and adults will enjoy reading it to them. It's kind of a Some Like It Hot on the farm! Bad Boys is a winner and definitely not to be missed. (Big Bad Boys can take a lesson or two here as well!)

I liked this book very much. I was able to flip through the pages and look at the pictures in order to get a pretty good idea about the story. Then when I went back and read the text it fit together a little better. The text has some built-in humor and the illustrations are all very good.

The story is about two male wolves that go from pig community to sheep community in search of a meal. At the outset we find the wolves with a picnic basket in hand running away from some pigs. They take a little breather after they get away and enjoy their meal. Then they move on and try to take advantage of some sheep. There are 18 scenes (2-pages each) in this book.

Although kids will probably love this book, I would have liked it better if it were the sheep that won over the wolves instead of their owners. And the sheering of the wolves' fur while they were dressed was just a little too corny for me. 4 stars!

WOW!This book is awesome!I liked when they go to the pig's house and the pigs scared them like 20 miles!(I THINK THEY'RE BABIES) I LOVED THIS BOOK!!!!!!!!! IF YOU LIKE FUNNY STORIES THIS IS THE BEST BOOK TO READ TO LAUGH!!

OF ALL THE BOOKS YOU COULD BUY BY MARGIE PALATINI THIS SHOULD BE LAST...EVENTHOUGH IT IS SOMEWHAT CUTE...THAT IS ALL IT HAS TO OFFER. NOT ONE OF MY FAVES, BUT THEY CAN'T ALL BE. IT REALLY WAS JUST DISSAPPOINTING. SORRY IT JUST WAS.
