EBOOK
About
Little Bo Peep has lost her sheep...as usual. What starts out as a simple nursery rhyme quickly derails into mayhem. Bo Peep can't find her sheep, but readers will, and they'll be coaching Bo from the sidelines as they watch her mischievous sheep swiping mittens from kittens, toppling Humpty Dumpty, and trampling Mary's garden. Dozens of beloved Mother Goose characters have cameos...and all have run-ins with the sheep. Readers will giggle all the way to the end when at last they can finish the rhyme, as the sheep (sheepishly) come home, wagging their tails, of course.

Reviews
"Though it won't be clear to readers whether Bo Peep herself or the people and animals that populate these pages are the ones causing the narrator so much angst, it likely won't matter-they will be too busy pointing out and searching for clever references to Mother Goose rhymes hidden in the illustrations. . .Flowers' artwork is busy indeed-share one on one, as the pictures require poring over-but for children who stick with it, surprises abound. And for those not up to speed on their nursery rhymes, four spreads of backmatter give the text for each of the 39 rhymes along with a thumbnail illustration so readers can go back and find them."
Kirkus Reviews
"Nursery rhymes pay little attention as Little Bo Peep tries to find her sheep - pigs are off to market, the spider is trying to swallow a fly, and so much craziness is happening that your kids will love looking at all the nursery rhyming details of each illustration. I think this picture book is hilarious."
