Abstract

en_US This book is designed for Grade 2, that is, children of seven or eight years of age. It is well done. The text takes Tom through two groups, hikers and fishermen. Both, when made aware of how they have been fooled, say that the boy will never fool them again. When the wolf does appear on a third day, both groups hear him but state There is no wolf. That night Tom does not appear at supper. His parents find him outside crying. A wolf came and chased away the sheep. Nobody came when I yelled. The parents say that they will look for the sheep tomorrow. They believe Tom but admonish him from now on, if he wants others to believe him, to tell the truth. A nice feature of this version is that we never hear whether the wolf actually destroyed some or all of the sheep. Good age-appropriate illustrations. Tom watches the sheep when he is not in school.
