Leviatopia: Friend-Sheep Day
A whimsical fantasy adventure about a magical city inside a gentle, wise whale, where friendship and kindness keep the whole world in balance.
Welcome to Leviatopia, a hidden city living inside Livi, a warm-hearted whale who listens, cares, and quietly watches over everyone within him.
When best friends Ella and Alex are called back to Leviatopia, they find the city in trouble. Friend-Sheep Day, a celebration meant to teach care and responsibility, has gone terribly wrong. This year, instead of learning from their humans, the sheep have started copying everything they do. Every argument, selfish moment, and careless word is reflected back, turning a joyful celebration into chaos.
As the problem spreads, Ella and Alex set out to understand what went wrong. Along the way, they are joined by Alex Tootley, his easily frightened dog Luna, and a very unusual hoverboard. Together, they travel through Leviatopia, meeting families, musicians, bakers, and toymakers who are all facing the same challenge.
What they discover is simple and powerful.
How you act can change the whole city.
With humor, imagination, and heart, Friend-Sheep Day explores friendship, responsibility, and the courage to lead by example, showing that real change begins with kindness.
Perfect for readers ages 8-12, this magical adventure is ideal for families who enjoy stories that are playful, thoughtful, and full of warmth.
Step inside Leviatopia. Something wonderful is always about to happen.

About the author
Ran cohen
18 books1 followerRanco (Ran Cohen) is a children’s author whose stories blend humor, imagination, and emotional insight. The world of Leviatopia began more than twenty-five years ago as a bedtime story he invented for his children, long before it became a published book series. What started as a quiet nightly ritual gradually grew into a rich, whimsical universe shaped by family life, curiosity, and play.
His writing often explores themes of friendship, kindness, responsibility, and growing up, not through lectures, but through absurd situations, magical worlds, and everyday moments that feel familiar to young readers. Ranco believes that stories meant for children should be read aloud, shared, and laughed over, while still leaving space for thought and reflection.
In addition to the Leviatopia series, he is the creator of Tommy Tootley’s Fart-astic Family, a playful collection of books and interactive apps that celebrate silly humor, imagination, and the chaos of family life. Across all his work, Ranco aims to create stories that invite children to think, feel, and engage, whether on the page or on the screen.
He is a father of three, the devoted human of a dog named Luna, and continues to write stories meant to be shared one page at a time.

A wonderful addition to our story time! As a father of three, it is rare to find a book that captures the attention of all my kids at once, but Leviatopia: Friend-sheep day did exactly that. They all loved it. It is charming, fun, and has a great message. Highly recommend!
