This book is done in colored pencil. The book is about a group of sheep whose jeep gets stuck in mud and some pigs help them get out. They crash the jeep and have to sale it. Students might enjoy the humor and pictures in the book.

this book is good for younger students who are learning about rhythms. It can help them understand better about what a rhythm is.

This is an adventure story about a flock of sheep that become misguided on their journey. This is a hemerous story with colorful pictures painted at different angles that makes it fun for the readers to follow along with.

This is oodles of fun to read out loud! The text is short, the story is funny, and the illustrations are cute.

A little taste of the text for you:

"Beep! Beep!
Sheep in a jeep on a hill that's steep.
Uh-oh! The jeep won't go.
Sheep leap to push the jeep.
Sheep shove. Sheep grunt.
Sheep don't think to look up front.
Jeep goes splash! Jeep goes thud!
Jeep goes deep in gooey mud." ( )

My dad has a jeep and it would be very funny to fill it up with sheep just like in this book. ( )

Book description

"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
