Summary: This book tells the story about Friska who is the smallest sheep in the flock. The other sheep keep teasing her about her size, and she tries to make herself look bigger. She covers herself with snow and steels a fleece from the shepherds at shearing times, but it does not really work. One day, a fierce wolf appears looking for a tasty meal, but he does not see Friska because she is so small. She creeps up behind the wolf and bites his tail, and the wolf runs off into the forest. All the sheep understand that Friska has saved them, and she is never laughed at again.
