Where Is The Green Sheep Board Book
Where Is The Green Sheep Board Book
Where is the Green Sheep? is a much-loved Australian picture book written by Mem Fox and illustrated by Judy Horacek.
It follows a playful search for a mysterious green sheep while introducing a parade of colourful characters along the way—there’s the near sheep and far sheep, the sun sheep and rain sheep, the bath sheep and bed sheep… but the green sheep is nowhere to be found.
With simple, rhythmic text and bright, bold illustrations, it’s designed for very young children and works beautifully as a read-aloud. The repetitive structure encourages participation, helping toddlers anticipate words and engage with the story, while also gently building early language and concept recognition like opposites and colours.
The board book format makes it sturdy for little hands, and the final reveal of the sleeping green sheep gives it a soft, calming ending—making it just as popular at bedtime as it is during playtime.
