Here is the blue sheep, and here is the red sheep. Here is the bath sheep,
and here is the bed sheep. But where is the green sheep? Mem Fox and Judy
Horacek take you on a wildly wonderful adventure in their rollicking search for
the green sheep. Mem has never owned a sheep, let alone a green one, but she
does admit to having woolly thoughts from time to time. Judy loves drawing
things, especially sheep. This is her first flock. Wonderful tenth anniversary
celebration of this endearing and hugely popular story, gift package of board
book and puzzle blocks.
