This book ended up being a lot of fun. I was hesitant at first, thinking it's not quite as smart as I like my silly books to be, but it won me over. I think 3-5 graders will really enjoy it.
Freddy comes from a long line of proud werewolves, and he's looking to make Uncle Lord Hotspur--the Grand Growler of the werewolves--and the rest of his family proud. But during his first Transwolfation on his 125th moon (ten years and one month), instead of a ferocious wolf he turns into a poodle. In the out...more

This book is really good! Freddy Lupin is so excited to be able to have his first transwolfation but instead of transwolfing he transdogs into a poodle. It's funny! It's a genius idea to make him be a poodle and a wolf. Then his mean cousins Chariot and Hariot dye him pink and shave some of his fur off.
I like this book because his parents were able to survive the silver bullet shot by Dr. Cripp, so it wasn't too sad. My favorite part is when Freddy meets Batty because it's an interesting way of...more

This book is just amazing, hilarious, and it sure made me get mad at the the putrid pair so much(the putrid pair is Freddy's snotty, evil, wicked, and dumb cousins). In this book felt extremely bad for Freddy since he brought disgrace to his family's name since he turned into a poodle, instead of a wolf. He was even turned pink the putrid pair. But at the end everything was better for Freddy obviously.
This book would have been better if the author made Freddy the strongest werewolf out of them...more

Very funny. There was a lot of foreshadowing. Situations were very funny. Characters were very well drawn. Well written. Liked drawings at chapter headings. Dragged in some places. Liked how made fun of characters names. Dungeon scene was great. Good for younger reader. Dialogue was well written. Some felt beginning was slow. Ending was too abrupt. Wanted more ends tied up. One felt the humour was forced.

This was a cute book. It had its good points and its bad points, but what book doesn't? It started out a little slow with a lot of background on the author's take on werewolves, so the first three chapters I had the trudge through. The overuse of the word "foolster" seriously got on my nerves by about the 15th page and bathroom humor was way overdone. However, once the plot started it moved pretty quickly and held my attention. There was also a very excellent twist towards the end that I really...more
Australian import about a boy who belongs to a family of werewolves, and looks eagerly towards the imminent High Howling and his own first Transwolftation. When he transforms into a poodle, he can't live it down. Funny, silly, entertaining. 3rd grade and up.
Kids ages 9-11 will like this. A little too much potty talk (how many times do I have to read the word "fart" or "poo?") for me, but a fun premise anyway...what would you do if you expected to turn into a wolf and ended up a poodle instead?
Ok ...go head and laugh at me giving this book 4 stars.. but when i read it a couple years ago all i can remember is that i couldnt put it down...it is kind of silly stupid.. but from what i remember... really cute..
I liked it but it was really plain to me. And I hated that the uncle made the dad disapear and that the uncle didn't care for his nephew why did he lock up his dad.
Poor Freddy! On his 125th moon (or 10th birthday), he is supposed to turn into a fierce black wolf, but he turns into a poodle instead! This hilarious story follows the adventures of poor Freddy as he tries to find his way out of his unusual predicament.
I liked it because I thought he was going to turn into a wolf (but he really turned into a poodle). He went through great adventures and found his dad.
This book has a GREAT hook for booktalking. The main character is a werewolf who has not yet changed, since werewolves don't transform for the first time until they are ten years and a month (121 months). Freddy is hoping to be a noble, strong, and brave werewolf like his father was. . .but instead, he turns into a poodle. To make matters worse, his awful cousins trap him in his canine form, then take him to be groomed and have his fur dyed pink. After escaping, Freddy uncovers a plot to destroy...more
My son wants me to give this 10 stars out of five. He said it was hilarious.
Hilarious and really good for kids aged 8-10!

At first I wondered why I downloaded this book, then I remembered the line about a boy who was suppose to turn into a wolf, turns into a --. Well you will have to read to find out what he turns into.
There are a lot of twist and turns in this book that are unexpected, and it keeps you wondering how "dripsy-whimpsy" is going to get out of them, but he is the PLAN MASTER.
I would read this book again and recommend it for a really good laugh.

I read this aloud to Earl and we both liked it. It's actually below his reading level, but it was still a fun book. Who doesn't love a pink werewolf???
One Sentence Review: This was actually a great deal of fun and it makes for an excellent booktalk as well.
This may be the best we're wolf book I have ever read and I have read lots of were wolf books ☺
It was awsome! I think it can be for anyone, except for dainty girls. Millie (8 years old)
