Setting off on a rugged hiking adventure, a fun-loving flock of sheep soon finds itself lost, and the resourceful sheep must come up with an ingenious plan to escape their predicament.

Margot Apple is a freelance illustrator, having illustrated more than fifty books for children while also producing illustrations for "Cricket" and "Ladybug" magazines. She now lives in Shelburn Falls, Massachusetts, with her husband and their pets, a dog and a cat.
Shaw's anything but sheepish sheep are on the move again--this time by hoof. As with their previous misadventures ( Sheep in a Jeep ; Sheep in a Shop ), everything is just dandy at the start of their latest caper: "Morning's here! It's warm and clear! / Sheep load up their hiking gear." With packs on backs, the frisky flock trots along happily until the inevitable snags occur: "Trees and bushes soon grow thicker. / Where's the trail? Sheep bicker." Ears begin to droop as the woolly creatures make their way through thorns, prickers, fog and bog, and then--horrors of horrors--"The compass sinks. They're in dismay. / How can they ever find their way?" Of course, the ever-resourceful sheep manage to do just that--despite a final drenching rainfall. Though the antics will bring on chuckles, this latest effort lacks the comic fullness and laugh-out-loud visuals found in the best of Shaw and Apple's collaborations. Still, the light verse is as snappy as ever, and Apple's art contains her trademark details--including the dapper sheep's millinery and their delightfully emotive facial expressions. Ages 2-5.
