Although the characters are simple, the pages are dynamic and humorous. All of Rowan Sommerset’s illustrations are wonderfully expressive. The characters are very simple, and include Baa Baa, the trickster, and Quirkey Turkey, his victim. The dialogue between Quirky Turkey and Baa Baa is enough to make readers giggle. Quirky Turkey comes along and starts asking questions about what Baa Baa insists are “smarty tablets” that make one “more intelligent.” Baa Baa convinces Quirky Turkey that these tablets are for him, and that they will make Quirky Turkey smarter. It is perfect for elementary school children who find tricks and potty jokes to be hilarious! The book begins with Little Baa Baa, who is bored. Baa Baa’s tricks warrant the warning on the front cover.īaa Baa Smart Sheep, published by Candlewick Press in 2016, is a book about childhood mischief and silliness. Even on the dedication page, the mischievous Baa Baa can be seen causing trouble. Unique and full of humor, Baa Baa Smart Sheep by Mark and Rowan Sommerset is a great choice for Trendy Tuesday.
