Wonderful Swedish series for young children May 05, 2010
Let's see, for my first set of kids we had 2-3 of these books, which I learned about due to living in Stockholm. For the next version of kids (one small daughter in Prague, actually, now nearly 5) I assiduously acquired every book in the series, 7 I believe, mostly used through Amazon US, but one also from Denmark, etc.
They are a wonderful series, the small stories and the interesting illustrations. The artist loves falling autumn leaves.. and of course these wonderful books led me (via writer and/or illustrator) to the 'Benny' series [Benny and the Binky..]and to the terrific Will series {Will gets a New Cap; Will Gets a Haircut..] etc.

Charming! Jul 17, 2001
This book is a little gem that will warm the hearts of both children and adults alike. It's refreshing because of its extremely sweet and simple storyline. But what really endears this book to you are its illustrations. I fell in love with Boo and Baa. Their expressions alone need no words. I own several of the Boo and Baa series and I don't even have children! Being a struggling children's book author, I can say that the B & B series are perfect in its simplicity. Your children will adore them. I certainly plan on reading them to my children one day.

Boo and Baa are great for children Jul 04, 2000
I gave this book to my nephew almost 2 years ago, and he still begs my brother to read it to him now. He loves it. The reason I bought it was because I thought it was a cute little story, but also because of its simplicity. Too many children's books focus on manners, emotions, or just off-the-wall fantasy. Boo and Baa are fun, and they like to do projects at home, which gives this story a safe, comfortable, at home qualtiy.

 Boo and Baa Cause Much HA-HA! Nov 30, 1999
While I often agree with the Horn Book's reviews they are dead wrong about the Boo and Baa series. Children love them. The pictures are very sweet and easy to understand and the plot easy to follow. Kids laugh aloud at these books. The "other sheep" books (you know, Sheep in a Jeep, etc.) are really more for adults. Little kids don't really understand the cleverness of the prose of those books. Boo and Baa they get. My 16 month old son learned many words from Boo and Baa in Windy Weather and he and his friends love the book. Get these books for kids under 3-- they are just delightful!
