From School Library Journal
PreSchool-K?The popular lift-the-flap gimmick isn't enough to save this failed effort. On a stormy winter night, Mama Sheep can't keep her baby warm in the barn. The farmer takes the lamb into the house and feeds her. After finding a warm place to sleep?a parsnip box?the lamb plays with the household pets. After finding her a sweater to keep her warm, the lamb's new friends help her to look for her mother. Pedestrian text and lackluster line-and-wash illustrations deflate the appealing idea of a vulnerable animal in need of care. Even the little lamb and kittens aren't particularly appealing, looking more scrawny and scruffy than adorable. A lift-the-flap flop.?Heide Piehler, Shorewood Public Library, WI
