Story Overview

This is a story about a little sheep who's afraid of shadows. He sees a shadow one day and runs away from the shepherd, getting lost in the woods and surrounded by shadows! Every shadow that he sees ends up being something he shouldn't be afraid of.

Themes and Inspiration

But later the shadows come from things that are frightening, especially for a sheep. This story is inspired by Psalm 23 and the Lost Sheep parable told by Jesus in Luke 15.
