The baby sheep on Suntime Farm have come to the end of their day and Mama is wanting them to return to the barn to go to sleep and dream the night away. Just like your own child, the four little lambs come up with every excuse they can to not go to bed....they aren't tired, they want a story, they are thirsty, and they are hungry. But Mama insists, says their prayers with them and stays close by as they fall asleep.
Shaped like the barn that houses the animals for the night, this little board book is sturdy and a great little bedtime story for very young children. I loved how the illustrator put glasses on one of the sheep and has both male and female lambs represented. The title and moon on the front also have a glittery like finish, adding a bit of sparkle to the cover.
It is hard, in my opinion, to go wrong with a board book that permit young hands to enjoy being read to when so small and the reader doesn't have to be concerned with torn pages if the child wants to be engaged in page turning. These playful little lambs are so cute, the excuses not to go to sleep so relate-able, this book is sure to be a favorite go-to for toddlers up to age four or five.
I did receive this book free from the publisher in exchange for an honest review and am in no way obligated to write a positive one.
