Title : The lamb who came for dinner
Author: Steve Stallman
Illustrator: Joelle Dreidemy
Publisher: Little Tiger
This picture book with accompanied cd is really sweet and not at all what I expected.
A hungry wolf, tired of vegetable soup finds a tiny lamb at his door and decides to thaw her out and fatten her up to eat her as a hotpot.
But his hotpot hugs him and he chases her away knowing he would eat her but in a quick twist of story she returns and he realizes he needs to keep her safe.
A lovely reminder that kindness and love can change even the hardest heart.
The illustrations are full of character and witty humor.
Hamish truly enjoyed this book.
