One More Sheep Book

I pulled this off the shelf because I loved the cover illustration, and anything sheep bleats out to me. (Thanks, Mom! hee hee) This was a fun read with good humor behind it. I think it's worth trying on my preschool storytime group. It seems like it might be long, but the rhyming text keeps the story going. And I can incorporate some action and counting. I'll see how it goes.

9/14/10 & 9/16/10 This worked wonderfully. The kids liked the story, and they followed the pictures very well. They enjoyed counting (and dancing). And they liked the sound effects I was able to put in. A definite success.

9/28/10 The group did very well with this, including the special needs group. In fact, they were anxious to start counting ahead of time! But it worked well and they helped add to the sound effects.

9/30/10 Smaller group and I had to put in a bit more effort, but they still liked the book.

1/11/12 Went well in both groups, even with the younger and newer (thus less responsive) crowd. The first group definitely enjoyed the dancing and counting part, and enjoyed making sound effect with me. The second group was much smaller and I think more shy. But still a fun choice.

9/9/15 Used in lambs and sheep theme. This worked so well!! Very fun.

5/2/18 Felt like a long time since I read this. So I used it in O theme. Small crowd. But they liked it. They may have been distracted from my wavery voice that is barely coming back after being sick. But they sat well for it and counted the sheep with me.

5/6/18 This one went down with Daddy for his Daddy Night. Without his voice, his mom read it to SD and she liked it. I believe this was reread again during our weekend, but I missed most of bedtime reading with SD this weekend because I was spending so much time trying to help SS be calm and ready to sleep. Ah toddlers.
