[ 책 소개 ]
* A/CBC Children's Choice
Ella Enchanted로 뉴베리상을 받은 Gail Carson Levine이 전래동화인 "늑대와 소년" 이야기를 전혀 다른 시각으로 재구성했으며, Flat Stanley 시리즈와 Math Start 시리즈의 삽화그림을 담당한 Illustrator인 Scott Nash의 유머러스한 그림이 이야기 줄거리와 멋진 조화를 이루는 책입니다.
브레이 벨리 마을의 새로운 양치기 목동으로 임명된 벳시는 역사상 가장 훌륭한 양치기 목동이 되고 싶었습니다. 그러나 호시탐탐 양을 노리는 영리한 늑대인 짐모는 한 수 위였지요. 양을 지키려는 벳시의 노력을 허사로 돌리기 위해 늑대 짐모는 교묘한 계획을 세웠습니다. 양떼 앞에 나타나서 벳시로 하여금 "늑대가 나타났다"고 외치게 만들고는 마을 사람들이 도착하기 전에 감쪽 같이 사라져 버리기를 여러차례 하자 이제 마을 사람들은 벳시가 외치는 소리를 들어도 거짓말로 생각하고는 아무도 나타나지를 않았습니다. 그리고 마침내 짐모가 양떼를 잡아먹으려고 덮치는 순간... 아무도 예상치 못한 반전이 기다리고 있습니다.

Book Description
On her eighth birthday Betsy takes the Shepherds' Oath and is determined to be the best shepherd in Bray Valley history Any wolf who tries to eat her sheep had better watch out But Zimmo is no ordinary wolf-he's a hungry wolf — with a Plan!
In her first picture book, Newbery Honor author Gail Carson Levine puts her own spin on a traditional tale, while Scott Nash brings a comic sensibility to this hilarious retelling. The result will tickle, delight, and even leave readers with a moral or two, or three....
Publishers Weekly
For this girl-centric take on The Boy Who Cried Wolf, "Kids may well cheer Betsy's courage and can-do spirit," wrote PW.
Children's Literature
After completing a course in becoming a shepherd, Betsy leads her sheep up the hill. Unknown to her a wily and hungry wolf named Zimmo has a plan to eat some sheep by tricking the villagers into not believing Betsy's cries of wolf. Zimmo is successful in having the villagers believe that Betsy is just playing a joke on them, but also begins to feel sorry for tricking her, as he can tell that she is trying her best. When the time comes to actually eat the sheep Betsy instead shares her lunch with the hungry wolf and he helps her herd the sheep. The villagers realize their mistake and apologize to Betsy. This story takes a lighthearted approach to the traditional fable and teaches that sometimes people should be believed even when the evidence indicates otherwise. The illustrations add to the lightheartedness with an almost comic appeal.
School Library Journal
In this amusing retelling of the classic fable, eight-year-old Betsy has just taken the Shepherd's Oath. "She was going to be the best shepherd in Bray Valley history. And any wolf who tried to eat her sheep had better watch out!" However, Zimmo, the last wolf left on the mountain, comes up with a plan. He appears to Betsy, causing her to blow her whistle and seek aid, but then disappears when the farmers arrive, destroying her credibility and sending her back to Shepherd School. When she returns to the job and he tries his ruse again, no farmers come when Betsy calls, but she is determined to defend her flock. When she goes to hurl her plate of shepherd's pie at Zimmo, she suddenly realizes how skinny he is, and gives him the food to eat instead. Grateful, he helps the child rescue some of the sheep that are dangling over a precipice, and eventually he, too, takes the Shepherd's Oath and joins her on the hillside. The irony of the fact that the sheep are being saved from wolves so that they may be eaten by people will probably be lost on the intended audience, but the running commentary on events made by the sarcastic and silly sheep will not. Nash's cartoonlike illustrations, with their clean lines, crisp colors, and folk-art touches, add considerably to the story. This pleasant addition could generate discussion when paired with the original tale.
Kirkus Reviews
Levine continues her tradition of reworked fairy tales with strong heroines begun with Ella Enchanted (1999) in this delightful tale of a bright young girl who can stand up for herself and the sheep she guards. When Betsy turns eight, she proudly takes the Shepherd's Oath, determined to be the best shepherd ever. Meanwhile, the last wolf on the mountain is hungry, lonely, and devising a plan to have sheep for his next meal. When Zimmo makes his appearance before Betsy and her flock, she blows her whistle and the farmers come running. But the crafty Zimmo has disappeared-part of his master plan. He repeats the show the next day-same deal. Sent back to Shepherd School and given one last chance, she packs her lunch and tends her flock. But there is Zimmo again, and this time he is charging right at them. Blowing her whistle fails to bring any farmers, so Betsy gets ready to hurl her lunch at the wolf, at which point he sits down and howls for food. Realizing that he is just hungry, the crafty heroine feeds him and he leaves the sheep alone. The sheep sum up one of the story's morals quite nicely: unlike the original fairy tale, "People who cry wolf may be deceived and not deceivers." Nash's (The Bugliest Bug, not reviewed, etc.) personified sheep are a stitch-walking on two legs, posing for a dive into the Soakenwetz River, belaying down a cliff, and always commenting on the current state of the story. Especially funny are the endpapers, where readers can eavesdrop on the sheep's conversations. A must-have.
