Ein Schaf fürs Leben [4+]
based on Maritgen Matter, stage adaptation by Natascha Mamier

What could possibly connect a carnivorous wolf and an unsuspecting sheep? Not the most promising setup. On a winter's night, Wolf trudges through deep snow to Sheep's barn - ravenously hungry, he tries to coax Sheep out of the safety of home with honeyed words. He proposes a sleigh ride to a place called "Experiences", painting it in the most glowing terms. The curious Sheep eagerly agrees.

As the journey unfolds, the two grow closer, and Wolf finds Sheep rather likeable. But his stomach growls mercilessly - despite his almost friendly feelings, he still has his eye on a juicy sheep fillet. Yet things don't go quite as planned...

Maritgen Matter's children's book explores themes of friendship, solidarity, and the courage to take a risk.
