Customer Reviews

Tee-hee!

It's fun and nonsensical; also, it will make you giggle!

Sheep Take a Hike

Great series for reading to now and reading alone later. Good basic rhyming vocabulary and charming sheep illustrations.

Sheep Take a Hike

I have purchaced all of the "Sheep books". This little gem is right on target, great...Our grandchildren loved it.

Good Choice

The jeep series illustrations are always fabulous but the text doesn't quite live up to Sheep in a Jeep. It's still worth getting. I just wish it came as a board book.

Humorous and realistic story about a group hike

This book is a hit with the 3-year-old I gave it to and with me. The rhymes are delightful, and the story describes the kinds of adventures and challenges that make hiking fun: route finding, weather, soggy snacks, group dynamics. It's a great way to prepare a child for what hiking involves

Sheep Take a Hike

This is another of the fantastic "Sheep" Books by Nancy Shaw. In this adventure the sheep go for a hike in the woods, lose the trail and then get lost. Do they find their way out of the forest? I love their surprising ending. I have loved following the five sheep and their seagull friend through their adventures. Young children who read with me love to look for the seagull, to spot the sheep with the knitting, and to find the rhymes on every page. The books are easy reading for the newest readers, with beautiful pictures on every page.
