A Sheep Called Mo

When we are growing up and hearing mums, dads and teachers talking to us, there are so many other things happening at the same time, like playing and eating. Sometimes, although we hear them talking, we don't actually listen. Mo heard his father say 'don't wander too far away from the farm, ' but he didn't really listen to him, so the day came when Mo had wandered so far away from his home that he became lost! Find out if his parents found him again, and learn how important it is to listen not just hear!

With four children under five living on a small farm near Melbourne Australia, Peter respected the need for their careful education and sensible discipline and decided, rather than remember the stories he'd told them the night before, that he would put his stories down in writing. Twenty years later, his stories have now been incorporated into two series of 'Life Lessons for Kids, ' one based on farm animals, the other on wild animals, and they are still being told by parents and families in the nearby farming community, at local schools and beyond.
