The woolly sheep is one of the most useful animals for many reasons. This book describes the lives that sheep lead on farms and explores the various products we obtain from them, such as meat, milk, cheese, and wool.
Lorijo Metz lives with her husband and little brown dog in the great state of Indiana. Though she has a degree in acting and directing, she much prefers the anonymity of the keyboard, allowing her characters to revel in the spotlight while she sits quietly sipping tea or coffee, nibbling on cookies, and dreaming up ways to complicate their lives.
WHEELS, Lorijo's middle-grade, Science Fiction, Adventure, which reviewers say is, "Brilliant," "Whacky, loads of fun," and "...one I know I'll reread," was awarded a stipend from ACX, Amazon's audible division. Look for it on Amazon.com, Audible.com and iTunes in time for the 2014 holiday season.
In 2013, Lorijo made her début as a lyricist. She wrote the lyrics for the title track on PUPPY DOG JIG, performed by children's singer and songwriter Owen Duggan on his newest CD.

A nice resource book for anyone interested in learning about the different kinds of Sheep you'd find on the family farm. Filled with great photographs, young readers will learn the different types of sheep, why they act the way they do, and what we get from them. A nice book for mid level readers.
