Scholastic

Baa Baa Blue Sheep is the third in the what happened before the famous nusery rhyme series by Tony Wilson and Laura Wood.
To read about or purchase Baa Baa, visit my new children’s book website.
Baa Baa Blue Sheep is the next in the behind-the-scenes nursery rhyme trilogy that started with The Cow Tripped Over the Moon and Hickory Dickory Dash (illustrated Laura Wood). Both of those titles were boosted by selection as the National Simultaneous Storytime title in 2017 and 2018 respectively.
Baa Baa Blue Sheep didn’t have that fortune, but it is a fun and funny book about sharing. The master and the dame are BIG FANS of wool. As it turns out, coloured sheep abound and there should be enough for everyone. The problem is, the master and the dame won’t share.
Each colourful encounter ends in wool catastrophe. Finally, a boy watching on can handle it no more …
Good work little boy who lives down the lane! Teachers and parents will have fun talking about colours, counting bags of wool, and discussing the general theme of sharing. A video version of me reading the story will go up on Story Box Library in March or April 2020
It ‘s a great companion to Cow and Hickory. Order at your local bookshop, or email me via contact page if you’re having trouble with stock. I can post a signed copy.


With vivacious illustrations that boast comically irrational antics, here is yet another classic that will have pre-schoolers sewn up in woolly stitches from top to bottom.
