'The relationship between Sheep and Wolf is a delightful mix of predatory and naive ... Great stuff.'

Synopsis
It’s a cold, dark winter’s evening. Wolf is hungry and goes out, shivering, in search of a meal. He finds Sheep in a lonely barn. Wolf persuades Sheep to go outside with him, his mouth watering at the idea of some fresh mutton.
Sheep has no idea what’s really going on, and he isn’t the slightest bit afraid. Finally, he’s found a friend.
But can a wolf be anything other than a wolf? Can Sheep escape Wolf’s hungry plan? |
