What a great series of books; This book comes as a picture book and as a board book so you can use it in different ways. As a read aloud, it's fun for the kids to watch what's happening in the hilarious pictures as you reveal the story. The sheep are out for a wild ride and suddenly the jeep is stuck. These are not the world's greatest problem solvers and they're going to go from one sticky situation to another. But it's fun all along the way. As an early reader, the book has rhyme and repetition as well as great pictures to keep the struggling learner entertained. The words are good teaching tools - you're going to meet "tug" and "shrug" and "grunt" and "front."
