Woolbur, a young sheep who thinks differently than the others, worries his mother and father with his free-spiritedness, but his grandfather thinks he will be fine. The children enjoyed this book and had many laughs at the antics of Woolbur! Great for K-3rd
From the Publisher: Woolbur's list of Do's and Don'ts: DO express yourself creatively... DON'T worry if you weave your forelock into a pot holder! DO march to your own beat... DON'T worry when Maa and Paa tell you to stay with the herd! DO be bold and brave... DON'T be afraid to BE YOURSELF! Woolbur is not like other sheep. He hangs out with wild dogs, cards his own wool to avoid the shearing barn, and even dyes his wool blue. "Don't worry!" says Grandpaa when Maa and Paa fret that Woolbur is different. But when they tell their son to follow the flock, the opposite happens-the flock follows him! Soon everyone is copying his wild hairstyles and taking turns on the spinning wheel. Leave it to Woolbur to find a new way to step ahead of the herd. Spunky, funky, and refreshingly distinct, Woolbur will strike a chord with anyone who's ever felt different. And that's all of us!
