It is about a small baby sheep who is having trouble sleeping beacuse everytime he is about to fall asleep he sees osmething happen around him. His mother tells him to count butterflies, and this ends up working for him. I would use this to read to my class before nap time. This is a story about a little lamb who had trouble going to sleep. The mother sheep would will her baby to sleep, but the little lamb could not fall asleep. Every time he tried to close his eyes, he would see something happen such as a bug jumping off a blade of grass. So, the mother told her baby to close his eyes, and count butterflies until he drifted off to sleep. This worked and the baby lamb finally fell asleep. This would be a great easy book for young children to read. This could also be a good bedtime story. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse

The title of this book called out to me for the library's bookshelf; I was expecting some kind of tongue-in-cheek humor based on it. Instead, this is book is more of a bedtime story. Its gentle story (of thin plot) is well-suited for that, along with the simple rhymes, although reader be ware that some of the phrases border on tongue twisting. The mother-and-child interaction is book-ended by the lyrics to a traditional song ("Sleep, Little Lamb") but if you are not familiar with that song, it's not obvious that's what's happening here.
Huang's illustrations fit well with the bedtime theme, using a soft-looking style and a muted palette of sunset colors. ( )
