The Unfamiliar Sheep

Sometimes in life people describe something that is odd or unfamiliar in a group as a “black sheep”, especially within a family. The unfamiliar sheep in this story is just that, different than the other sheep. The message of this book is to teach children that it is okay to be different and that being different isn’t a bad thing.


I got the idea for the story while lying in bed, thinking about how things are a lot different than they were when I was growing up. I realized that children today have many more obstacles to face than past generations.
