Abstract

en_US
Here is a clever, feel-good children's story with delightful illustrations. Ewetopia the sheep is not comfortable just being herself. She dresses to impress others but fails. When she gets her invitation to the Woolyones' Costume Ball, she tries on fifty-eight outfits before she finds the perfect one: a wolf. At the ball, everyone shuns her, until a mysterious stranger arrives, apparently a sheep disguised as a sheep. This character is attracted to Ewetopia and dances with her but keeps calling her Mother. Soon enough Ewetopia realizes that it is a wolf in sheep's clothing. In fact, the wolf drops the disguise and snatches three sheep. To save her friends, Ewetopia adopts the mother role, tells the wolf that she has a surprise for him, but that he must do several things before he gets the surprise, including picking up his room. He throws a tantrum, loses his energy, forgets his victims, and stomps out proclaiming that he will never pick up his room. Ewetopia has saved the day and enjoys dancing with her friends. The illustrations make the story, beginning with the dust-jacket and front-cover picture of Ewetopia in her costume ball disguise. The spread on 10-11 featuring various costumes at the ball is also excellent, as is the spread on 20-21 of the wolf's attack.
