Eduardo Guadardo, Elite Sheep by Anthony Pearson
Eduardo Guadardo may look fluffy. He may look cute. But he’s no little lamb. He’s about to graduate from the FBI—that’s the Fairytale Bureau of Investigations—as an Elite Sheep. He knows five forms of kung fu, and he can outfox the foxiest of foxes. In fact, he’s so good they put him on his own case: to keep the farmer’s daughter, Mary, safe from Wolf, Troll, and Witch. It’s a job for somebody baaaaaaad—someone like a soon-to-be Elite Sheep. The thing is, protecting Mary isn’t quite as easy as Eduardo expected… This imaginary backstory for “Mary Had a Little Lamb” is hilarious, action-packed, and filled with subterfuge (that means pulling the wool over your eyes, for you civilians).
“This is a zany adventure with vivid cartoon characters and a multitude of jokes on every pagePerhaps there will be more adventures for the Elite Sheep. The premise is a promise of more to come.” —New York Journal of Books “I love a good fractured fairy tale, and Eduardo Guadardo fits the bill!” —Mom Read It “The story offers a life lesson even for the youngest of readers.” —Sincerely Stacie “Original, creative, and such fun!” —Mrs. Mommy Booknerd’s Book Reviews “Quirky, silly, and hilariously clever…Parents and teachers will get a kick out of this story.” —Kristi’s Book Nook “What a fun and quite smart idea! I didn’t know that I ever wondered how Mary got her lamb, but this backstory is one epic way for that nursery rhyme to come about!” —Unleashing Readers
Anthony Pearson is not a spy. He’s not. We promise. He’s actually a school counselor, a child therapist, and the author of Baby Bear Eats the Night, illustrated by Bonnie Leick. But that didn’t stop him from digging for clues about “Mary Had a Little Lamb.” What he found made him imagine what could have inspired the rhyme: a sheep that is totally, absolutely, 100 percent in control of things … or maybe just 95 percent. And squirrels in sunglasses. Oh, and a witch flying a helicopter. But you didn’t hear about the Fairytale Bureau of Investigations from him. Anthony and his family live in deep cover in Georgia.
