The Lamb Who Came for Dinner by Steve Smallman

This story enchanted both me and my students. We loved it! We all wanted to read the story again and again. A hungry wolf gets an unexpected surprise from a little lost lamb. The wolf decides to make some lamb stew for dinner. The little lamb gets some hiccups and the wolf can't eat a hiccuping lamb, he might get indigestion. After finally getting rid of the hiccups the little lamb is tired and snuggles with the wolf. The wolf has never been snuggled with before and feels his heart start to melt. Before his heart melts all the way he starts smelling the delicious sent of lamb. He then remembers he was hungry but before he eats the little lamb he kicks her out of his house. The poor wolf has such a big heart he can't imagine the little lamb out there all alone so he saves her. I promise you won't be disappointed in this book.
