Description: This shrewd and diverting story of foolery and mystery is about a shepherd boy who finds danger at his campsite. The moon is down and wolves are circling; Kabul the wizard and his band of robbers are closing in. What does the boy do to save his camp? He goes to sleep. His "snores," like his father's before him, drive the wolves away and bewitch the bandits. Throughout these antics readers are smoothly hoodwinked into following the path of the narrator in his nightmare. Beddows's nocturnal world of bogeys, wolves, and night watchers is breathlessly captivating. Black-and-white pictures depict the dark abyss of the dream world.
