Sheep loves her naturally curly wool, and styles it to suit her moods, but when it grows too full and fluffy, Sheep's wool causes her trouble.So, Sheep Dog shows her the flyer for "Shearing Day!" Sheep is not interested - but even getting to the barn is difficult - she steps in poop, and falls into the pigs mud. Nothing Sheep dog does can convince Sheep Sheep that a haircut is a good idea, because she's never had one before. 

I loved the story, and Oh the illustrations! Watching Sheep Sheep not notice things she walks through, and trying to spot her hiding places made this a thoroughly enjoyable read. The kids will love it. All of Sheep's hairstyles, and Sheep Dog's reaction when it's suggested that he could get a haircut too, oh my!
