Story & Pictures by Jacqueline Cooper

A classic fable retold with spare language and striking mixed-media artwork. 

When a wolf speaks kindly to a goat standing above him, the goat must decide whether words can be trusted over instinct. This thoughtful hardcover invites young readers and grown-ups alike to talk about intention, wisdom, and listening closely when something feels off. Ideal for shared reading, classrooms, and library collections.
