Horn Book

Shaw's infectious rhyming story about a crew of sheep who crash their jeep is successfully presented in a lap-sized board book edition. Apple's expressively scribbly illustrations and Shaw's concise, very funny text work as well for toddlers as they do for the original edition's slightly older audience.

``Beep! Beep! Sheep in a jeep/on a hill that's/steep./Uh-oh!/The jeep won't go,'' is a fragment of Shaw's jaunty verse, heartily dramatized by Apple's colored drawings. Ages 2-5. (Oct.)

"A rollicking, simple story that never loses its bounce" —Boston Globe

Here they come, a flock of rollicking sheep in their sturdy red jeep. Will their outing be a success?

Jeep goes splash! Jeep goes thud! Jeep goes deep in gooey mud!

Here is a lively, funny tale, perfect for reading aloud. The youngest lap sitters will quickly learn to chant along with the reader as the brisk story unfolds, and they'll delight in the colorful portrayal of the hapless sheep.

This proven winner for sharing and circle time will have your little ones giggling along.

“The bright-colored pencil drawings and lean text make this a great choice for preschool storytimes, as well as for beginning readers who want a funny story.” —School Library Journal
