Have You Ever Seen a Sneep? by Tasha Pym


Illustrated by Joel Stewart
Rating: Recommended
Random House, 2009, $16.95
ISBN: 9780374328689
Age/Grade Level: Ages 3 and up


A poetic tale of a young boy who questions the Sneep and friends who seem to be following him throughout his day and his picnic. A cute sotry with nice illustrations. The shades of color the illustrator uses are subtle and calming. Tasha PYm is a British author and a line or two may need to be explained to youngsters. A little British jargon makes the book standout nicely.
