Sharing with Wolf

by Melinda Szymanik, Nikki Slade Robinson (Illustrator)

This picture book asks the classic age-old question - can a wolf and a sheep live together? Lamb is pretty keen to make it work but Wolf isn't so sure it's a good idea. She has a tendency to eat sheep. Will they become housemates?
