The gorgeous black and dark blue backgrounds, thick with night, make the opening of the curtain, and the sunlight that spills onto the last page, feel like another undressed window through which we can better see the self.The New York Times A Junior Library Guild Gold Standard Selection "Genuinely lovely. A gorgeous palette of colors and emotions with illustrations that leap off the page."Matthew Forsythe, creator of MINA, and Pokko and the Drum A hilarious and touching graphic novel about the pressures of conformity and conquering fear by finding community. Bellwether Riggwelter is, once again, out of blackberries. This time, rather than tiptoe through a forest full of predators, he comes up with a new plan. He will keep himself safe by blending inhe will sew a Wolf Suit! The disguise works perfectly . . . sort of. Bellwether realizes he cant enjoy the forest in a bulky suit, and he may not be the only creature in the forest who feels that way. Perhaps not everyone is as wolfish as they appear. With humor, darkness, and insight reminiscent of Jon Klassen and Edward Gorey, Sharp turns the idiom wolf in sheeps clothing on its head. The perfect contemporary folktale to press into the hands of anyone who has felt they need to pretend to be someone else.

I absolutely adore this all-ages graphic novel about a sheep who crafts a wolf costume in order to conquer his fears. But living in disguise is no picnic either. Bellwether finally has the courage to be himself, and the final scene, where he opens his window curtain to let the light in, makes me tear up a little every time. Nonbinary illustrator Sid Sharp has used rich deep colours to whimsical effect. #Queer #CanLit #kidlit #comics

He got up, did some stretches, looked around, ate some breakfast.
