This book reminds me of Sandra Boynton's writing - cute, easy rhymes with a simple plot. My 1.5 year old and 3 year old love this book. Cute plot, easy rhymes, not annoying as an adult to read over and over. Plus we're border collie fans so it was fun having a children's book with a border collie as a character. Highly recommend! See pictures for size info and snippet from the book.

I love the Sheep series. The text in Sheep Go to Sleep is charming and the pictures are fun. Young children enjoy the humor in these stories. As a pediatric speech-language pathologist, I use every one of the books in this series with my clients who are working on the /sh/ sound. There are many opportunities to practice saying the sound correctly at the word and/or sentence level and my clients love to retell the stories to their parents. You can't do any better than that.

We love all of the sheep books and this is no exception. Adorable story about a collie who helps take care of the sheep when they need to go to sleep.

My little guy (10 months corrected) absolutely loves this book. He won't go to sleep until he's heard it at least twice! It's such a sweet story, so I never tire of repeating it.

Silly sounds, great rhymes, beautiful drawings/pictures ... Cute story lines
Always a fave!! Have to read this story over & over b/c it is FAVORITE of little kidlettes
