Customer Reviews

Highly recommended

I have read this story over and over to my six year old son. The painted illustrations by Tim Coffey are absolutely gorgeous. The colors are so vivid, and the paint textures pull the viewer into the landscapes. Dusk is my favorite time of the day. Tim Coffey has captured that glow felt by fall's sunsets.

A refreshing and amusing story for kids and their parents

A jewel among the throngs of stories that have no moral or lesson for it's reader. The lamb's behavior is so typical of a young child just discovering his world and wanting to be like the one he admires. His innocence in his pursuit to have a "red berry" coat like his friend is amusing. He finally discovers that he is happy as he is as long as his friend is near.
