What would you do if you had a sheep as a pet? Would you teach her to count and tell the time? Would you play dressing-up games with her? Or would you eat ice cream together? This is the story of a girl and her imaginary pet. Mick Inkpen is also the author of "If I Had a Pig".

Editorial Reviews

From Publishers Weekly

The "what if" implied in each of these titles is playfully executed; for the girl who imagines life with a sheep, and for the boy who imagines life with a pig, the days would be full indeed. Baths together until they are both wrinkly, or chasing leaves, or playing grown-upsthe gleeful but basic notion behind these two books is that a sheep or a pig would be a grand friend to share things with. Comic watercolors depict the wish-filled antics. Ages 2-6.
