Mary Was a Little Lamb

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Ted Rand. Island resident Mrs. Paradise adopts and raises a stray lamb. But Mary the lamb roams freely and peskily, becoming a community pet, until everyone agrees to take her to a mainland petting zoo where she can be more appropriately contained, cared for, and visited often. Bright, frisky illustrations and a satisfactory resolution make this a pleasing story.
