Bently, Peter. The Great Sheep Shenanigans, illustrated by Mei Matsuoka. $16.95. Contend: G. PICTURE BOOK. A sneaky and hungry “wily old wolf” by the name of Lou Pine is looking for sheep to eat for a snack. He comes up with a crafty plan to trick the sheep and hopefully have his fill of cutlets, roast leg of lamb, chops and more! What Lou Pine doesn’t know is that sheep are very crafty themselves. Who will get the last laugh? The book is beautifully illustrated. The colors are bright and the illustrations tell the story perfectly. Be aware: there is mention of the wolf landing in a pile of poop. Make sure to prepare for students laughter and comments with that one! There is also a little twist on the story of “Little Red Riding Hood.” Pre-K. EL (K-3). OPTIONAL. Reviewer: SL.
