One sheep steps out of the flock

A flock of sheep shares its daily routines, from eating and sleeping to watching a train pass. Then the refrain turns attention to Scout, opening a playful search for the sheep who isn’t simply following along. The seek-and-find format brings together animal behavior, repetition, and the idea of standing apart from a group, with humorous situations built around spotting a distinctive character. The description presents it as a read-aloud as well as a book for looking closely at the pages.
