I bought it for my niece’s fourth birthday. The story is very easy to follow, therefore it would be useful for even younger children to learn name colour and some adjective words.

My daughter loves this board book. Great size for her little hands! It's currently her favourite book. I like the rhyme and how it teaches different themes/words.

My 2.5 year old enjoys this book and reads it several times a week. The words are simple but catchy. If I’d known of this book, I’d introduce it earlier to my kid. Recommend this!

I've been readying this to my daughter for 3 mths. She is 12mths old now and it's her favourite. A 'must own' copy for any baby.

Great book but this edition was about a quarter of the size of my other copy. Too small for visual attention and pre reading tasks.

Bably translated!
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 29 December 2020Verified Purchase
Lovely little book... hmmm not so much if you want an accurately teach kids! the traslation is mostly off. Is more of an interpretation
For example: y esta obeja baila bajo la lluvia = and this sheep dances under the rain. Not this is the rain sheep !!! Totally not the same and almost doesn't make sense in English. As a bilingual in both English and Spanish i wouldn't recommend this. Unless you just want a book in Spanish and a very different in english none related!

I think it’s a fake - translation is wrong
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 5 May 2020Verified Purchase
The English translation is rubbish. It isn’t what the Spanish words are saying at all. The Spanish story is so simple how can anyone get the translation wrong unless this is a fake?

Ssshhh.. Scream
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 13 October 2019Verified Purchase
New favorite with my 18 month toddler who is selecting this book every night for past two weeks. I bought it several months ago on recommendation from the speech therapist in a chatter babies play group, but he is only enjoying it now. He loves the scene in the park with all the sheep doing different activities. When we get to the final page with the sheep sleeping, he screams to wake him up! Nice illustrations, repetitive rhyming text and good for language development.

This is a fantastic, delightful book
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 17 June 2017Verified Purchase
I highly recommend this book. The illustrations are entertaining and funny,
Introduces many things such as, thin, wide, near, far, moon, star, up, down, sun, rain, car, train, scared, brave, wind, wave, and colours
But where IS the green sheep? You will have to read it to find out!
I knitted a set of sheep, including wide, tall and coloured ones to go with the book.

My babies love this book
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 22 July 2020Verified Purchase
A friend introduced my children to this book and they now absolutely love it. The pictures are clear, the text is simple and easy to understand and there are lots of things to talk about given the pictures are relatively simple. I also like the introduction of new vocabulary throughout.
