However, I will admit that the book left it open-ended, if you wanted to speculate - although it didn't seem in anyone's character to send them off for the crockpot.(less)

Is this book for adults, teens, or children?

Without getting into spoilers, it features topics that are not suitable for immature readers. It's just that the sheep, whose eyes the story is told from, don't understand what they are. The reader however, is explicitly told about these things.(less)

I have difficulty catching up with all the characters, my Kindle version does not include an x-ray. Does anyone have any suggestions or links (no spoilers please) to a list of all the characters with brief introductions?

Maude: has a very good sense of smell and is proud of it.

Sir Ritchfield: the lead ram, not as young as he used to be, rather hard of hearing and has a poor memory, but his eyes are still good.

Miss Maple: the cleverest sheep in the flock, maybe the cleverest sheep in Glennkill, quite possibly the cleverest sheep in the whole world. Has an enquiring mind, never gives up, sometimes feels a sense of responsibility.

Heather: a lively young sheep, doesn't always think before she speaks.

Cloud: the woolliest sheep in the flock.

Mopple the Whale: the memory sheep: once he has seen something he never forgets it. A very stout Merino ram with round spiral horns, almost always hungry.

Othello: a black Hebridean four-horned ram with a mysterious past.

Zora: a Blackface sheep, with a good head for heights, the only ewe with horns in George Glenn's flock.

Rameses: a young ram whose horns are still rather short.

Lane: the fastest sheep in the flock, a pragmatic thinker.

Sara: a mother ewe.

a lamb: who has seen something strange.

Cordelia: likes unusual words.

Melmoth: Sir Ritchfield's twin brother, a legendary ram who disappeared.

Maisie: a naïve young sheep.

the winter lamb: a difficult lamb, a troublemaker.

Willow: the second most silent sheep in the flock; no one minds that.

Gabriel's ram: a very odd sheep.

Fosco: correctly thinks himself clever.

The book doesn't give a list of human characters, and the Wikipedia list has spoilers, so if you want those I'd have to edit the Wiki and take out all the extra information.(less)
