LoveReading4Kids Says
A Lovereading4kids 'Great Read' you may have missed 2011 selection.
A catchy rhyming text propels this entertaining story of how the wily sheep manage to see off the predatory but foolish wolf. Lou Pine thinks he’s one cool and clever wolf but all his well-made plans go badly wrong – especially when he is confronted by Rambo the ram. Great illustrations capture the wolf’s tricks and the equally inventive ways the sheep outwit him.
