Frog, Toad and Pooh?


Sheep and Goat. by M. Westara. A warm, fuzzy book that is reminiscent of Frog

and Toad in its tone. "Goat is talkative, impulsive, curious and full of energy, while

Sheep tends to be quiet, sensible, pensive and sedentary, but the two have more

in common than it initially appears.Together, these two young females share a comfortable meadow on a sleepy farm." The two friends quarrel, however they also get along. Through the year they experience storms, birthdays, accidents, visitors, adventures, and in the process we grow and learn with them. It is a comforting book with Pooh-like subtle philosophy throughout. A sweet choice for ages 7-10 that would make a wonderful read aloud for bedtime or anytime!

I loved Sheep and Goat too and suggested it to Martha as a great one to recommend to the 7 to 8 Club.
