Sheepish (Wolf Under Cover) by Helen Yoon



Wolf has a plan. He'll disguise himself as a sheep and once the sheep believe he's a sheep--dinnertime! But, wait. What if in the process of pretending to be a sheep, Wolf grows fond of the sheep? Will he still eat them? 

Thoughts: Too funny! I like how Wolf's plan ultimately backfires and he gains something more than dinner. The mixed media illustrations are colorful and engaging. I love both Wolf's and the sheep's facial expressions. This will be a fun book to use during storytime. Pair with Brenda Is a Sheep by Morag Hood and Wolfie the Bunny by Ame Dyckman

Themes: Wolves, Sheep, Disguises
