What happens when a frightened sheep decides the best way to stay safe is to dress like a wolf? In The Wolf Suit, author and illustrator Sid Sharp delivers a funny, beautifully illustrated graphic novel about courage, belonging, and learning to be yourself.

Bellwether Riggwelter loves blackberries, but gathering them means venturing into a forest filled with frightening predators. Determined to protect himself, he comes up with a clever solution: sew a wolf suit and blend in! His disguise works, but Bellwether soon discovers that exploring the forest isn’t much fun when he’s hiding inside a bulky costume. And perhaps the other creatures aren’t quite as scary as they seem.

With atmospheric full-color illustrations, gentle humor, and a thoughtful message about overcoming fear and finding community, The Wolf Suit turns the familiar idea of a wolf in sheep’s clothing upside down. A charming contemporary folktale for readers who have ever felt pressured to pretend to be someone they’re not.
