Publisher's Synopsis
Silli lives in the middle of a meadow, in the open air. One morning, a gust of wind pays a visit-brrrr! What if the wind comes to stay? If only Silli could find some sheep, he'd have wool to knit a sweater to keep him warm. Luckily, he spots five large "sheep" up on a hill-perfect! It's just too bad they're resistant to herding and their wool is incredibly hard. But when Silli leans against them, they block the wind and keep him warm…. Perhaps he can build a shelter made of sheep? And so he resourcefully arranges his sturdy sheep (which are actually sheep-shaped rocks) into a little hut, and is finally warm and dry. This charming story-crafted in the tradition of folkloric characters who are well-meaning, likeable, and also a bit ridiculous-is sure to have a ton of kid appeal.
