Review:
This book is a very strange book which is not very popular in my family. It uses words in the book that are not very child friendly like stupid and piffle and Rubbish. I know that it might be that someone likes this book, but it is very hard to get your head around the fact that the actual outcome of the story is a positive.

It is a book about being an individual and different, but when you spend the whole book having to explain it even to your almost 5 year old that should tell you that only the negative is sinking through. The only good bit I can say about this book is the illustrations are amazing with the last page having a pop up and moving dancing sheep.

Rating 2 out of 5
