Jacqueline Harvey (text) and Kate Isobel Scott (illustrator), Kevin the Sheep, Penguin Random House, March 2024, 32 pp., RRP $17.99 (hbk), ISBN 9781761048951

Kevin the Sheep is an action-packed picture book involving a sheep called Kevin, who is a little bit different to the rest of his flock. This hilarious rhyming story by Jacqueline Harvey communicates the idea that it is important to be yourself despite what others think of you, a message that is very relevant today.

The story can assure young readers that it is okay to enjoy things other people may not like, as this could be your superpower! The illustrations, by Kate Isobel Scott are extremely entertaining, and the story is relatively easy to understand, making this book suitable for children aged three to seven.
