The main theme of the story is A) Appearances are deceptive. The wolf deceives the sheep by wearing its skin, highlighting that not everything is as it seems and that one should be cautious of appearances.
A Wolf found great difficulty in
getting at the Sheep owing to the
vigilance of the shepherd and his
dogs. But one day it found the skin
of a sheep that had been flayed
and thrown aside, so it put it on
over its own pelt and strolled down
among the Sheep. The Lamb that
belonged to the Sheep, whose
skin the Wolf was wearing, began
to follow the Wolf in the Sheep's
clothing; so, leading the Lamb a
little apart, he soon made a meal
off her, and for some time he
succeeded
in
deceiving
the
Sheep and enjoying hearty meals. What is the main theme?
A Appearances are deceptive.
B People are evil.
C Don't trust anyone.
D Be careful who you follow.
