Chip is a sheep. As you certainly know, sheep grow wool. Lucky coincidence, because Chip loves wool. This year, he's made a decision: no shearing for him. He is going to escape.
It's shearing day at the farm, but Chip loves his warm, cozy wool too much! So he ventures out into the wilderness, determined to explore and see the world. The other sheep don't understand―why would Chip leave the safety of the flock? Isn't he comfortable following, like everyone else? He'll look ridiculous if he doesn't get sheared, and doesn't he know there are wolves in the mountains?
But Chip doesn't care! Destiny calls! He has big dreams: places to see and things to do. He wants to have experiences and let his wool grow big! And maybe eventually, one of those experiences will be coming back home.
Included is a reader's note for adults on talking to children about independence, individuality, risk-taking, and resilience. Even a temporary experience can be a meaningful one.
