::STORY HOUR WITH JULIE::

During my strenuous task of sorting through about 30 boxes of children's books, I came across one titled, 'Sheep in a Jeep.' 'This one sounds good!' I thought to myself. So, I took a break to read the book.

HORRIFYING. This book is horrifying. And I started thinking about how I would retell the horrible story of Sheep in a Jeep to you. And then! I decided that maybe I should just read you the whole book. It's more effective this way.

PLEASE, sit tight, maybe go get a light snack or beverage and prepare yourself for the tragic story.....



SHEEP IN A JEEP





Sheep in a Jeep. By Nancy Shaw.



Beep! Beep! Sheep in a jeep on a hill that's steep.



Uh-oh! The jeep won't go.



Sheep lead to push the jeep.



Sheep shove. Sheep grunt. Sheep don't think to look up front.



Jeep goes splash! Jeep goes thud! Jeep goes deep in gooey mud.



Sheep tug.



Sheep shrug.



Sheep yelp. Sheep get help.



Jeep comes out. Sheep shout.



Sheep cheer. Oh dear! The driver sheep forgets to steer.




Jeep in a heap. Sheep weep.



Sheep sweep up the heap.



Jeep for sale - cheap.

THE END.



Hhmmmmm.........



BOOOOO!!!!!!!


Those poor sheep! They got into TWO CAR ACCIDENTS in one day!!!! What little child wants to read about sheep getting into multiple car accidents?!?!

I was shocked. That second car accident was a twist in the story that I did NOT see coming. Yeah, that went in a totally different direction. And they totaled their car!

That doesn't seem like very good advertising for Jeep.

And now what are those sheep going to do?? They have to walk home? Geeze. This is very upsetting to me. What was Nancy Shaw thinking when she wrote this book?

NANCY SHAW: I want to write a children's book! Ooo! How about one where some sheep get into two car accidents and finally total their car!!

Doesn't make sense to me.

ANYWAYS. Thanks for coming to Story Hour with Julie. I hope you learned some valuable lessons about never letting your sheep drive your Jeep. Or, any car for that matter.

Have a great night! Drive safe!!!
