My rating: 4 stars / I really liked it
Synopsis
Clover the Lamb is always up to mischief, but when she wanders too
far and cries out for help, she learns the love and help of her Good
Shepherd are always near.
100 Little Lambs is a
playful read-aloud with heart, teaching young readers about the parable
of the lost sheep and the constant love of their Savior.
My Review
This is a sweet book of the lost sheep, who is cheerfully illustrated as a mischievous little troublemaker with a tendency to wander off. The other ninety-nine sheep also have anthropomorphic qualities that are focused on grooming, dancing, and safe behavior. The rhyming verses have a singsong quality which would make it fun to read aloud to a child. While the text doesn't delve too deeply into the gospel principles, it does cover the basic premise that Jesus will rescue us when we need His help. It provides adults and children with the opportunity for further discussion, and I can see how young children would enjoy the simple illustrations. A wonderful gift, especially with Easter around the corner!
