It had promise, but it got too repetitive (and I like a good repetitive story to help kids read). This one's way longer than it needed to be with little as far as moral or excellent ending. Meh.

Cute story about being yourself...and for the parents, a bit of a "careful what you wish for" as well.

Cute story about a little sheep who marches to a different beat with a surprising result. Darling illustrations too.

Another cute book; it caught my attention. Characters Maa and Paa worry about Woolbur, who doesn't behave like the other sheep. The conclusion is refreshing.

Woolbur isn't like the other sheep. His Mom and Dad beg him to follow the crowd, instead of doing the outlandish things Woolbur finds more fun. Grandpaa sheep tries to tell them Woolbur will be just fine, but his parents INSIST he act like the other sheep. Woolbur doesn't want to change to be boring like the other sheep in his class, so he teaches his classmate all his crazy ways. Is teaches students that is great to stand out! You don't have to follow like everyone else just to pacify others (as long as no one is getting hurt)

Good message, but the story and illustrations lack flair.
