Peter and the Wolf

From the story by Sergei Prokofiev
The much-loved classic story of how Peter catches the wolf, retold and illustrated by James Mayhew, with downloadable music

Prokofiev, a brilliant composer born in Ukraine in 1891, wrote Peter and the Wolf in the style of a traditional folk-tale, which he set to music for children, using different instruments for the various characters in the story. This story has become a favourite piece of classical music for children across the world, now retold and illustrated by James Mayhew.

Peter lives with his grandpa in the forest and is told to beware of the wolf. But Peter ventures into the meadow, meeting a duck, a little bird and a cat and eventually comes face to face to face with the big, hungry wolf, who wants the duck for his dinner.

How Peter manages to catch the wolf and stay safe himself is delightfully retold and illustrated with James Mayhew's glorious collage images and an exclusive recording of the music, downloadable by QR code.
