Eek, Sheep!

Woolly army
Sixty hungry, grumpy sheep stood on the stormy hill. The wind was wild, and rain splashed around the soggy sheep.

One sheep leader stepped out in front and gazed into the distance. “Let’s go to town. March on, brave flock!” she cried.

The hungry woolly army went on the march. The ground beneath their hooves was muddy.

The flock shuffled down the slippery hill.

The cheeky sheep didn’t stop until they reached a campsite.
“Eek, sheep!” a worried man cried. Shoo!

They took mangoes, potatoes and sticky honey.
Next, the hungry sheep marched into town.
