A disgruntled sheep who never gets to be counted finds a way to be included. […] Combined bedtime and numeric fun.
Sheep Number 19 is an adorable story about teamwork and finding solutions when you’re feeling left out
There’s no real capper to the book, but I greatly enjoyed the creativity that the sheep employ to establish fairness. Fairness, after all, is a concept that even animals understand. A clever take on an old standard
