Boo and Baa on a Cleaning Spree

The BEST Boo and Baa book is "Boo and Baa Have Company." This one (Cleaning Spree) is the second best. It has a lot of humor in the simple text and very expressive drawings. Boo and Baa set out to clean house but end up getting very dirty themselves. The drawing of them in their towels after their bath is priceless. My 3 y.o daughter loves all the Boo and Baa books. She loves how this one ends with a snack- very comforting.

My two and a half-year-old niece has gone Boo and Baa crazy, and requests the Boo and Baa stories several times daily. She makes up little songs about Boo and Baa, and refers to them even when she's not reading the books. I think the appeal is that the stories are about things young children can relate to, and often have experience of, and the hapless sheep find the world as surprising as little ones often do. They may not know why things happen the way they do, but have fun anyway. Also, Boo and Baa are a boy and girl, and they are portrayed as equals. Both are enterprising, both can get a little scared or apprehensive, and they are not slotted into doing "boy things" and "girl things" respectively, but both can do everything, as opposed to many other children's books. This series is a great choice for young readers!

My three year old son loves vacuums. This little book is perfect. You can't go wrong buying it!

I bought this book for my son when he was 2 because he was infatuated with vacuum cleaners. It is a very cute book about two sheep who decide to clean their house. They have some mishaps along the way, but they get the job done. If your child loves vacuums, this book is a must-have. It is one of a very few children's books that mentions the vacuum cleaner! It is a cute book even for the non-vacuum-lover!
