The Great Sheep Shenigans by Peter Bently – review

Nicki and Luke: 'This is a funny story with great rhymes and unusual language'
  
  


Luke and I really enjoyed this book about a wolf who pretends to be a sheep to get a lamb for his supper. The illustrations are great and the layout varied from page to page.

The sheep are drawn as round woolly circles with little black heads. The wolf falls foul of "Rambo the Ram" and Little Red Riding Hood's grandma in his quest.

This is a funny story with great rhymes and unusual language to find in a children's picture book including "shenanigans", "skeddadling" and "derriere".

Luke giggled out loud and this is the sort of book that I would happily read over and over – which I am sure I will end up doing!. Any book which mentions "poo" will be a hit with my son and I am sure lots of other boys. Highly recommended.
