Shelley the Sheep

Shelley the Sheep loves to play tricks on Erica’s chicks. “Cheep, cheep!” chirp the chicks, “It’s Shelley the sheep. Shoo Shelley, shoo!”

Written by a speech and language therapist each story is packed with multiple repetitions of selected sounds and rhymes. Shelley the Sheep is full of soundplay with a special focus on ‘sh’ and ‘ch’.

The stories are expertly crafted to support children’s developing speech sound awareness and vocabulary knowledge. These are key foundation skills for success with phonics, early reading and spelling.

The simple, interactive storylines make it easy for children to anticipate what happens next and to join in when they hear the stories again. This provides lots of opportunities for them to both hear and practise saying words.

Children love repetition! It helps them build their knowledge and understanding of word meanings and story structure. We hope that you will enjoy each story again, again and again!
