Loading... Sheep in a Jeep (1986)by Nancy E. Shaw
None. Sheep in a Jeep is a rhyming book about five silly sheep that go on a little adventure together, It is a good book about showing kids words that similar endings ( introducing onsets and rimes- word famalies) Kids would enjoy it because it is a funny good rhytmical book. (  ) MichelleForestier | Apr 22, 2013 |  A story about a jeep that wouldn't go, so the sheep used different tactics to make the jeep go. They tried pushing it, pulling it, they shouted, cheered, but jeep still would not go. Eventually, they wrecked it and put it up for sale for the salvage parts. This is a good book to teach about rhyming words (leap/jeep, cheer/dear, jeep/steep, heap/weep, and sheep/sweep/heap). Can teach about words that sound alike but are spelled different. (  ) vivhenry | Apr 21, 2013 | younger readers learn alliteration and rhyming with this book ChelseaBell | Apr 12, 2013 | I found the writing very cute and the illustrations just make the book. This is one book I don't mind hearing the kids read to me over and over, and even the older kids like to listen in for nostalgia sake when the younger ones read it. One of my favourites. ( ) ShannaRedwind | Mar 31, 2013 | The book starts off with the sheep in a jeep on a steep hill. The jeep will not move so the sheep get out to push, what they do not see over the top the hill is a mud puddle. The jeep gets stuck and the sheep tug and pull but cannot get it out of the mud without help. The sheep ask the pigs to push with them and with the extra help the jeep gets out of the mud. The sheep get into the jeep, but no one is driving so the jeep runs into a tree. The sheep are in a mess again, they are sad but decide to clean up the mess and sell the jeep cheap. It is ok, but it is not something I would like to read again and again. The children do enjoy seeing the jeep drove by the sheep. Animals, Who usually drives a car. Helping out a friend. Teamwork. Mud. Getting stuck. (  ) sondrabrush1969 | Sep 9, 2012 | no reviews | add a review

"Beep! Beep! Sheep in a jeep on a hill that's steep."This story, much like the jeep, gathers momentum from page one. When five foolish sheep cram into one jeep, their high spirits and occasional lack of foresight (like forgetting to steer) combine to make a riotous, if ill-fated, road trip. Plummeting over a hill, tumbling into a mud puddle, yelping for help, these muttonheads just can't get their act together, much to the delight of young readers.
Nancy Shaw's Seussian rhymes are guaranteed to tickle every reader's funny bone, while providing a great little learning tool, as well. Who wouldn't want to learn how to read, after hearing lines like this: "Jeep goes splash! Jeep goes thud! Jeep goes deep in gooey mud!" Well-loved illustrator Margot Apple humorously captures the dopey expressions and preposterous predicaments of Shaw's sheep. More wild and woolly misadventures can be found in any of Shaw and Apple's other sheepish titles, including Sheep on a Ship and Sheep Take a Hike. (Ages 2 to 7) --Emilie Coulter
