Blabey, A. (2015). The bad guys.  New York, NY: Scholastic Press.

          Mr. Wolf might have a long rap sheet of bad deeds including blowing down houses and attempting to eat old women and their granddaughters, but that doesn't mean he's a bad guy!  Everything you've heard up until now has been a lie.  He really is a NICE guy.  And it's not just him...he has a few friends who also have undeserved reputations and have been unjustly labeled as "Bad Guys."  They include Mr. Snake, Mr. Piranha and Mr. Shark.  Forget the fact that they just want to eat everyone, because Mr. Wolf has a brilliant plan.  No longer will they be the villains, eliciting screams and fear from those they meet.  As of today, these 4 friends are now known as the "Good Guys Club."  They'll drive around in their wicked cool car, rescuing kitties from trees and dogs from the pound.  They'll be heroes!   Even reluctant readers will delight in the friends' humorous dialog and antics in this first book of a brand new graphic novel series from author-illustrator Aaron Blabey, author of the Pig the Pug series.  Recommended for students in grades 1-3, but enjoyable for all ages!
