I get the message the book is trying to convey, but I am not sure it accomplished it, especially for a young audience. Additionally, if the rhymes are going to be emphasized then they should not also be forced (e.g. fool and wool do not really rhyme). But, the story was cute as were the illustration, and I do appreciate the message the book was trying to convey.

Amusing, though I’m not sure I want to be reminded of how cute lambs are and yet how good they taste!
