Shear Magic

A little lamb with magic wool has a bad hair day, and a determined shepherd tries to help.

A surprise spring snowstorm leaves all the newly shorn lambs out in the cold, but Piper has a bigger problem. Peet, her favourite ewe, won’t stop growing wool after she’s sheared! And to top it off, it grows back purple! How does Piper stop the out-of-control wool from taking over the barn? And what is she going to do with all that fleece? Shear Magic is a delightful rhyming story—with hilarious illustrations—about friendships, problem-solving, and a little creativity!
 

• Readers will love this whimsical, heartfelt tale about love, patience, and problem-solving.
• The rollicking rhyme and humour are a perfect match for a lively read-aloud.
• Hilarious and expressive illustrations, bursting with colour, energy, and personality, bring Peet’s woolly adventure to life.

She likes to include animals in her stories and lives with two of her favorite animals, English setter Phoebe and ragdoll cat Indigo.
