For fans of Wallace and Gromit, Feng Sean's title displays the same rye wit and humor of the three Wallace and Gromit adventures. If you read the book the title is the last time you will see such wit or humor. The text is life lessons from Hallmark, on a bad day. Banal and trite best describe the writing. All you will get from this book are photographs from the adventures. Better to buy Wallace and Gromit on DVD to replace you worn-out VHS tape.

Shaun has some pretty good advice for a sheep! While this little book is humorous the advice is down to earth and practical. Nothing you don't already know but things that we all need reminding of once in a while. My only complaint was that the book was much smaller than I imagined. It's only a 5 minute read and is more of a cute novilty than anything else. Still, as a big fan of Wallace and Gromit I'm happy to have Shaun the sheep right there next to all the other motivational books on my shelf!

I purchased this book for a W&G fanatic so the gift will be appreciated. But it is not as charming as I would have hoped from the creators of W&G and all their close associates.

This book is really cute and I think any and all Shaun fans should add this to their library. The only "down" side, for me, is that it is based on the Wallace and Gromit movie, "A Close Shave" rather than on the Shaun the Sheep show. I would have loved having pictures in this book with Shirley, Timmy and the Flock. Still, it is an adorable book with short (and useful) tips for finding your Inner Sheep.... uh, I mean your Inner Peace.

I find this British born series funny and very charming. For someone who once did raise sheep (4-H and FFA)I can identify with some of the traits that sheep do posess; none of mine were as gifted as these

and certainly wouldn't have been able to create something as droll as "Feng Shaun".

Love Aardman, W&G, Shaun, etc...but missed it in the description that this book is the size of a postage stamp...$9.95 a bit steep...what saves it, though, is the correlation between the affirmations and the animation...some are just laugh out loud funny. If you're a die-hard fan, then this book is for you...just read it reeeeeeeeeally slowly..........
