Book Overview
Shaun is the new sheep shearer in Shaggy Gully. Since shearing is such hard work, all the other shearers have sheep dogs to help them. But not Shaun. His partner is Pete . . . a sheep- sheep! Pete has a polite way of rounding up his charges, and Shaun is an expert shearer. The sheep are thrilled with this unconventional new team, but the other shearers--Ratso, Big Bob, and Bungo--are not. Luckily, Pete has a few ideas under his hat that are sure to please everyone. Bruce Whatley's spirited illustrations bring to life Jackie French's zany characters in this hilarious tribute to individuality and the working sheep.

A fun, zany tale is created
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
Bruce Whatley provides fun simple drawings to accompany the tale of an Australian sheep shearer who doesn't have a sheep dog, but a sheep named Pete who speaks politely to the others, Pete and shearer Shaun are good partners - but the other shearers have a gripe, especially when Shaun creatively sheers Pete with a whole new look. A fun, zany tale is created.
Fabulous

This is a wonderful, quirky story with some great characters. Taking on the manly world of sheep-shearing, Pete and Shawn go about it, well, differently, to the delight of the sheep and the sheep dogs, but to the dismay of the rugged old-school shearers. The drawings are perfectly matched to the story line, and kids absolutely love the expressions and the dialogue.

I loved this book! It has a fairly simple story line, and wonderful, light, airy, whimsical illustrations. The expressions are priceless. Best suited for children 4 and up. Super cute.
