Abstract
The boy in this version of BW watches sheep do mostly two things: chew grass and poo. There is the recurrent scatological element of this series! This boy thinks through the possibilities to counter his boredom, starting with announcing aliens. The townsfolk are represented here by a dentist, a teacher, and the boy's parents. The second time he cries "Wolf!" his parents are sure that he has learned his lesson: "It must be for real." At the end of this version, the wolf swallows the boy whole! Aesop is introduced on the first pages of each book in this series. In this book he admonishes "Take care with sums and learn to spell and wash each day or else you'll smell." Rhyming couplets throughout. 48 pages. 5¼" x 8".
